Part 2 协和教科校长和BC课程部校长致辞 BC Principal Address
协和教科校长李春燕女士和BC课程部的校长Ms. Wereschuk女士，向在场的毕业生和家长们表达了热烈的祝贺与欢迎之情，并向毕业生们送上了深深的祝福。
The principal of SUIS Jiaoke Campus Summer Li and the principal of BC program Ms. Wereschuk extended a warm welcome to the graduates and the parents present. They also gave their best wishes to the graduates.
她们首先强调毕业是庆祝学习、成长与坚韧的时刻，协和教科是学生走向世界公民的起点。作为校长，她们见证了学生从完成严格学术课程到成为自信青年的转变，其成长体现了 BC 课程精神。学生高中阶段历经疫情带来的线上线下学习转换，却在其中深入学习学科知识，构建跨文化沟通、批判性思考等核心竞争力；10 年级后，学生借助 AI 等工具探索全球挑战，不再局限于记忆知识，而是学会连接知识、反思学习，将学术技能转化为兼具整体性与反思性的生活能力。
First, they emphasized that graduation is a moment to celebrate learning, growth and resilience, and that SUIS Jiaoke is the starting point for students to become global citizens. As principals, they have witnessed the transformation of students from completing rigorous academic programs to becoming confident young adults, whose growth reflects the spirit of the BC program. During their high school years, students experienced the transition between online and offline learning brought about by the pandemic, but they deeply studied subject knowledge and built core competencies such as cross-cultural communication and critical thinking. After the 10th grade, students used tools like AI to explore global challenges, no longer limited to memorizing knowledge, but learning to connect knowledge, reflect on learning, and transform academic skills into holistic and reflective life skills.
她们指出学生在多元文化环境中展现了个人与社会责任感：通过合作、辅导学弟学妹及支持校园活动，在东西方文化交汇的上海，依托加拿大课程形成了独特的跨文化视角。此外，学生的大学录取成果令人瞩目：共收获349份录取通知，含281份世界百强大学与142份世界 30 强大学 offer，其中77份来自加拿大顶尖的多伦多大学，4 份来自高要求的麦吉尔大学，UBC录取亦有31份；英国方向首次突破，获帝国理工、伦敦大学学院等英国前五院校的11份录取，彰显了学生的学术实力与努力。
They pointed out that students have demonstrated personal and social responsibility in a multi-cultural environment: by cooperating, tutoring younger students, and supporting campus activities, they have formed a unique cross-cultural perspective in Shanghai, where eastern and western cultures meet, relying on the Canadian curriculum. In addition, the students’ university admission achievements are remarkable: a total of 349 offers have been received, including 281 from world top 100 universities and 142 from world top 30 universities, of which 77 are from the top University of Toronto in Canada, 4 from the high-requirement McGill University, and 31 from UBC. In the UK direction, there is a first breakthrough, with 11 offers from top 5 UK institutions such as Imperial College London and University College London, demonstrating the students’ academic strength and efforts.
她们代表学校向教职工致谢，称其以专业精神教会学生学习，用善良助力个性发展，以奉献诠释决心与创造力的重要性，其示范的同情心、批判性思维等能力，通过多元评估、项目及活动影响着学生；同时感谢家长在疫情等不确定时期的信任与支持，认为是家长给予孩子探索超越想象世界的机会，才成就了今日的毕业时刻。
On behalf of the school, they expressed gratitude to the faculty and staff, saying that they taught students to learn with professional spirit, helped them develop their personalities with kindness, and interpreted the importance of determination and creativity with dedication. The competencies such as compassion and critical thinking demonstrated by them influence students through diverse assessments, projects and activities. They also thanked parents for their trust and support during uncertain times such as the pandemic, believing that it was parents who gave their children the opportunity to explore a world beyond imagination that made today’s graduation moment possible.
她们寄语毕业生：无论赴加拿大、英国、亚洲等地开启新篇章，都要汲取课本外的知识，勇于发声、怀揣勇气，坚守文化与个人身份。强调毕业生不仅为世界做好了准备，更具备塑造世界的能力，最后以“祝贺 2025 届毕业生，我们为你们骄傲”收尾，传递出对学生未来的坚定信心与深切期许。
They sent a message to the graduates: no matter where they go to start a new chapter in Canada, the UK, Asia and other places, they should learn knowledge beyond textbooks, have the courage to speak out, and hold on to their cultural and personal identities. They emphasized that graduates are not only prepared for the world, but also have the ability to shape the world. Finally, they ended with “Congratulations to the Class of 2025, we are proud of you”, conveying firm confidence and deep expectations for the students’ future.
Part 3 家长代表发言 Parent Welcome Address
毕业生王沛辰家长王彬宾先生作为家长代表发言，他向家长们分享了孩子在BC课程部成长的欣喜，也表达了对BC课程部的感谢和对毕业生们的衷心祝福！
Mr. Wang, Alex Wang Peichen’s father, spoke as the parents’ representative. He shared the joy of Alex’s growth with the parents, and also expressed his gratitude to the BC program and heartfelt wishes to the graduates!
他作为毕业生家长，回忆四年前为孩子选择 BC 课程的原因：孩子在公立学校虽成绩稳健，但缺乏提问、选择与探索热爱的空间。尽管新课程体系、语言环境和学习方式带来挑战，孩子却逐渐主动规划时间、深入提问、设立目标，在理科方向（数学、化学、物理）的学习中，不仅提升能力，更锤炼出独立、自律与自信的品质，最终收获四所大学录取，选择阿尔伯塔大学计算机专业。
As a graduate’s parent, he recalled the reason for choosing the BC program for his child four years ago: although the child had stable grades in public school, there was a lack of space for asking questions, making choices, and exploring passions. Despite the challenges brought by the new curriculum system, language environment, and learning methods, the child gradually took the initiative to plan time, ask in-depth questions, set goals, and in the study of science subjects (mathematics, chemistry, physics), not only improving his abilities but also tempering the qualities of independence, self-discipline, and confidence. Finally, he received offers from four universities and chose the computer major at the University of Alberta.
他分享孩子十一年级参与小组项目的经历：面对任务繁重、时间紧迫和组内分歧，孩子主动担当，深夜协调任务、解决矛盾、修改内容，最终引领团队完成项目，赢得尊重。此过程中，孩子学会冷静沟通、情绪管理，真正理解责任的意义，以此说明责任是成熟的标志，鼓励毕业生在自由中坚守责任，以担当作为人生选择的内心力量。
He shared the experience of his child participating in a group project in the 11th grade: facing heavy tasks, tight schedules, and internal disagreements, the child took the initiative to assume responsibility, coordinate tasks, resolve conflicts, and revise content late into the night, eventually leading the team to complete the project and winning respect. In this process, the child learned calm communication and emotional management, and truly understood the meaning of responsibility. This illustrates that responsibility is a symbol of maturity, encouraging graduates to uphold responsibility in freedom and take responsibility as the inner strength for life choices.
他代表家长感谢校长与中外教，称其不仅传授知识，更以行动诠释责任与榜样，助力孩子成长为更有力量的人。最后祝福孩子们肩负责任、心怀希望，在人生路上坚定前行，成为眼中有光、心中有爱、肩上有担当的人，以担当照亮世界。
On behalf of parents, he thanked the principal and Chinese-foreign teachers, stating that they not only imparted knowledge but also interpreted responsibility and set examples with actions, helping children grow into more powerful individuals. Finally, he wished that children would shoulder responsibility, hold hope, move forward firmly on the road of life, and become people with light in their eyes, love in their hearts, and responsibility on their shoulders, illuminating the world with their commitment.

I believe that our graduates will surely move forward with more confidence and courage to embrace the world in the blessings of teachers! The teachers’ graciousness is unforgettable, encouraging the graduates to come back often!
Part 5 教师代表发言 Teacher Address
幽默风趣、思维活跃的Mr. Charrier作为教师代表，和大家分享他和毕业生们的点点滴滴。
Mr. Charrier, a humorous and active faculty representative, then took the stage to share his experiences and memories with the graduates.
他认为高中毕业是兴奋且不同的转折点，成年世界伴随更多自由与责任，作为数年前刚大学毕业的年轻人，他理解人生新阶段的不确定性，以自身经历拉近与毕业生的情感距离。
He believes that graduating from high school is an exciting and distinct turning point, where the adult world brings more freedom and responsibility. As a young adult who graduated from university just a few years ago, he understands the uncertainties of this new life stage, using his own experience to bridge the emotional gap with the graduates.
作为首批授课学生毕业的教师，他难忘与学生在英语、纺织和原住民课程中共享的笑声，即便学生偶尔抱怨作业挑战，仍感谢他们每日带入课堂的好奇心、创造力与幽默，对毕业时的最后相聚既自豪又不舍。
As a teacher whose first batch of students are now graduating, he cherishes the laughter shared with students in English, Textiles, and First Peoples English Studies classes. Even when students occasionally complained about challenging assignments, he appreciated the curiosity, creativity, and humor they brought to the classroom every day. He felt both proud and reluctant about this final gathering at graduation.
他肯定学生身上独特的特质，认为他们在升学、出国或社交等不同选择中已展现茁壮成长的韧性。借摄影师 “喜欢去从未去过的地方” 的名言，鼓励学生以探索新事物的精神迎接未来，相信他们能找到属于自己的道路，同时盼其不忘来路、常回学校。
He affirmed the unique qualities in each student, believing they have demonstrated resilience to thrive in choices like further studies, moving abroad, or social interactions. Citing the photographer’s quote “I love to go where I’ve never been,” he encouraged students to embrace the future with a spirit of exploring the unknown, trusting they will find their own path while hoping they remember their roots and visit the school often.

Part 8 毕业生代表发言 Valedictorian Address
在颁奖仪式和毕业证书授予仪式之后，来自12年级优秀毕业生代表Leslie王乐瑶和Bruce Lei也发表了演讲。他们的演讲为即将各奔东西、追寻各自梦想的同学们，送上了最后的告别与祝福。
After the award ceremony and diploma presentation ceremony, the final speech was from G12 valedictorians Leslie Wang and Bruce Lei. Their speech was the students’ final goodbye before they went their separate ways to pursue their dreams.
他们以对话形式开场，感慨毕业时刻的到来，随后庄重地以毕业生代表身份致辞，强调能代表2025届发言是至高荣誉。他们共同阐述 SUIS Jiaoke 的核心精神，认为学校给予学生“展开翅膀翱翔”的珍贵自由，这种自由支持学生在学术领域追求卓越、在运动赛场全力以赴，或是通过组织校园活动构建难忘回忆，体现出学校对学生全面发展的鼓励。
They started with a dialogue, marveling at the arrival of graduation, then solemnly delivered a speech as valedictorians, emphasizing that representing the Class of 2025 was the highest honor. They jointly expounded on the core spirit of SUIS Jiaoke, believing the school grants students the precious freedom to “spread their wings and soar”—supporting them to pursue excellence academically, strive wholeheartedly in sports, or build unforgettable memories through organizing campus activities, reflecting the school’s encouragement for comprehensive development.
他们站在讲台上感慨四年时光飞逝，回忆起高中生活的点滴：小组作业未摧毁的友谊、老师“A+ A+”的口头禅、课间咖啡吧的摩卡、课堂上的笑声辩论，甚至评分标准比题目还长的有趣作业。他们坦言不会想念周五早八的数学作业和英语突击考，却将这些日常细节视为内心中最珍贵的记忆，字里行间充满对校园生活的不舍与眷恋。
Standing on the stage, they marveled at how swiftly four years had passed, recalling bits of high school life: friendships unbroken by group projects, the teacher’s mantra “A+ A+”, mochas at the café during breaks, laughter and debates in class, and even interesting assignments with rubrics longer than the tasks themselves. They frankly admitted not missing Friday 8 AM math homework or sudden English pop quizzes, yet regarded these daily details as the most cherished memories, imbued with reluctance and affection for campus life.
他们认为“改变并非坏事”，鼓励毕业生们在毕业之际为自己的努力鼓掌，以应对考试周的韧性面对未来未知。他们强调每个人都将追逐不同梦想，相信大家有能力创造属于自己的未来，同时感谢家人、老师、朋友及学校工作人员的支持，希望毕业生们带着这份感恩奔赴新旅程。
They believed “change is not a bad thing,” urging graduates to applaud their efforts and face future uncertainties with the resilience shown during exam weeks. Stressing that each would chase different dreams, they trusted everyone could create their own future, while thanking family, teachers, friends, and school staff, hoping graduates would embark on new journeys with gratitude.
他们代表全体毕业生向学校致谢，最后以“Per aspera ad astra”（穿越荆棘，抵达星辰）的座右铭收尾，既呼应高中阶段在挑战中成长的经历，也祝福 2025 届毕业生在未来道路上以坚韧克服困难，最终抵达理想的彼岸，为演讲画上充满力量的句号。
Representing all graduates, they thanked the school, ending with the motto “Per aspera ad astra” (Through hardships to the stars). This not only echoed their growth through challenges in high school but also wished the Class of 2025 could overcome difficulties with tenacity and reach their ideal shores, concluding the speech with powerful resonance.
