亲爱的老师们、同学们、家长们：
在大家的期盼中，我们迎来了新的学年，国际部全体师生带着满满的能量，从世界各地聚集到美丽的清华园，共同开启新的学年。首先，让我们用热烈的掌声欢迎新同学和家长，欢迎你们加入THIS的大家庭！
走进校园，大家一定发现学校有了很多新变化，从焕然一新的接待大厅到很有视觉冲击力的THIS FAMILY长廊，从整洁明亮的卫生间到重新修整的小花园，从体育馆充满动感活力的墙面到二层的艺术长廊，从新增加的教室到优化后的学习空间，甚至于为了让教室中smartboard的观看角度更合理，重新进行了居中的调整，每一处变化都让我们欣喜激动，而这些都还只是大家能够目之所及的，其实还有很多大家看不到的幕后的工程，比如我们重新更换的全新的体育馆地板，工程量非常浩大的水电基础改造，网络硬件和打印服务的升级改造等等。让我们开心地欣喜地欢庆学校的这些美好的改变！
暑假期间，我知道同学们也都过得充实而有意义。你们的脚步跨越了地球的各地。有4名同学，参加了戈壁挑战赛，每天暴走十几公里，挑战身体的极限，磨练意志，获得了全部的金牌，我为他们自豪。高中的同学参加顶级学科竞赛，取得金奖。中文辩论队再摘桂冠。有的同学将自己的爱好发挥到极致，驾驶帆船，环中国海航行，为校增光。还有很多同学，在中文老师的带领下，参加了多个支教活动，把自己的特长传递给他人。我为你们骄傲！同学们，我想把掌声送给自强不息，向上向善的你们自己！
疫情之后，我把今年的年度关键词定为“链接”，希望我们加强师生的链接、同伴之间的链接、教师之间的链接、一届届毕业生精神传承的链接、家校的链接、校内资源与校外资源的链接，让我们在链接中彼此赋能，汲取力量，在链接中学习、成长。李校长在此对大家有三点期待：
首先，在链接中保持身心的健康。
大家都知道，学校这两年在核心价值观中增加了身心健康（wellbeing），因为教育要以终为始，为学生的生命成长赋能。而运动和阅读，是保持身心健康最简单又有效的方式。他们应该是你们，也是我们所有人一生的坚持。
运动使人的体魄变得强健。清华体育教育的开拓者， 同时也被誉为“中国体育界一面旗帜”的马约翰先生，曾提出体育的“迁移价值”——即“运动使感觉敏锐，使意识得到发展，而意识是智力范畴中基本和最终的东西 “。因此，清华一直重视体育运动，强调“无体育不清华”。我希望每个同学都有自己热爱的体育运动：跑步、球类、游泳、健身、竞技……同时能够带动身边的朋友一起运动，在运动的链接中团结合作，享受青春的恣意昂扬。
阅读是我们建构丰盈内心的力量源泉。新的学年，希望大家能够以阅读为媒介，学伴共读，师生共读，小组共读……在阅读的链接中分享成长，让阅读的阳光照亮每个人的内心。
所以我希望你们是运动热爱者，读书痴迷者。我期待你们，动时，体育场上有你们每一个人的矫健身姿。强身健体、顽强拼搏、超越极限 ，静时，徜徉书海、沐浴书香，腹有诗书气自华。
其次，在链接中找到热爱的力量。
去年国际部艺术节的舞台上有一场音乐剧《汉密尔顿》让大家印象非常深刻，甚至被强烈要求给错过的小学的师生和其他想要再欣赏一次的师生进行第二次演出。而这部经典音乐剧在国际部舞台上的精彩呈现，就源于两个高中生的热爱，她们从十年级开始反复研习这部音乐剧，在十一年级开始链接舞蹈社团、链接所有热爱音乐、表演的同学在一起，将他们对艺术的热爱凝聚成一股力量，化作一场精彩的演出，让我们赞不绝口。
2023级毕业生毕业前，学校组织他们进行了几次线下分享活动，在分享中，同学们认真总结了他们之前所走过的路。这些同学选择的专业不同，但个个从内到外散发出光彩。他们在分享中都提及了社团对他们的影响。一群有共同热爱的人相聚在一起，是微光汇聚成星河的璀璨。因热爱而链接，因链接而更加热爱，内心的笃定和坚持，让每个人都从内到外散发出光芒，真正做到了我所期待的 “眼里有光、心中有梦、脚下有路”。
最后，在链接中找到个人的价值。
实际上，链接并非单纯的吸取力量，同时也是向外输出能量的过程。当我们学会与外部世界建立链接，以开放的眼光看世界，人生的格局和视野也会因此变得宽大；当我们把自己的才能、热爱、特长用于服务他人、改变社区、贡献社会的时候，就会产生一种个人的成就感，而这种价值感又会化成内驱力，促进一个人更好地发展。热爱数学的同学比如被MIT录取的的Victor将能量传递给低年级的学弟学妹们，热爱辩论的同学将学到的技能发展成思辨课，搬上了支教的讲台，模联的同学将领导力化为实践，走向自己的模联教练生涯。他们从理论走向实践，从个人小我走向社会大我，从象牙之塔走向广阔世界，这种积极正向的对外“链接”体现的是国际部的同学作为社会公民的主动性和责任感，体现的是新一代青年的担当精神。
同学们，老师们为了更好地迎接你们，已经提前一周进行了培训及准备，请让我们向老师们表示感谢！
我在上周全体教师培训的大会上与老师们分享了今年的年度关键词“链接”之后，中学部主任Mr.Pare引用了一句话作为对这个关键词的回应：The most important things in life are the connections you make with others.（生活中最重要的事情是你与其他人产生的链接）。所以李校长非常期待，你们在新的学年，在与他人的链接中，创造更多的精彩！
Stay Strong！Stay Connected！
谢谢大家！Thank you !
Dear teachers, students, and parents,
Good morning!
As we do at the beginning of every fall, we once again welcome the start of a new academic year. In this new year, many new students have joined the THIS family. Let’s warmly welcome them.
Our campus has had a facelift, you must have noticed many new changes. From the newly renovated reception hall to the visually striking THIS FAMILY corridor, from the refurbished and bright restrooms to the small garden, from the vibrant sports hall walls to the art gallery of the second floor in the gym, from the added classrooms to the optimized learning spaces, and even the repositioning of the smartboard in the classrooms for a better viewing angle. Every change brings us joy and excitement. These are just the visible improvements; there are many behind-the-scenes projects, such as the replacement of the sports hall floor, extensive plumbing and electrical renovations, and upgrades to network hardware and printing services. Next year, we will continue to enhance our school facilities during the summer break, striving to create a better campus environment for everyone. As the school continues to evolve and rejuvenate, are you all ready for the new academic year?
Post-pandemic, I have chosen “connection” as the keyword for the school year. I hope we can strengthen the connections between teachers and students, amongst peers, between teachers, the spiritual legacy of successive graduates,between home and school, and between internal and external resources. Let us empower each other through these connections, draw strength, learn, and grow. I have three expectations for everyone:
Firstly, maintain physical and mental health through connections.
As you all know, the school has added wellbeing to our core values in the past two years. From the perspective of “cultivating individuals,” nurturing healthy and harmonious individuals is the basic responsibility of education. Exercise and reading, though often mentioned, are essential for physical and mental health. Exercise strengthens the body, which is the foundation for resilience. Physical health can fight against mental weakness. Mr. Ma Yohan, a pioneer of physical education at Tsinghua University and a flag bearer of Chinese sports, emphasized the “transfer value” of sports. Therefore, Tsinghua has always valued sports, emphasizing “No sports, no Tsinghua.” I hope every student has a sport they love and can inspire their friends to join them.
Reading is the power source for constructing a rich inner world. Reading leads to more knowledge and wisdom. The more profound our inner knowledge, the more unbreakable we become. Reading is also a way of cultivating the mind and body. In the new academic year, I hope everyone can read together, share recommendations, and let the light of reading illuminate everyone’s heartyour world.
Secondly, find the power of passion through connections.
Last year’s art festival featured the musical “Hamilton,” which left a deep impression on everyone. The brilliant presentation of this classic musical on the THIS stage originated from the passion of two high school students. They studied the musical since the tenth grade and, in the eleventh grade, connected with the dance club and other students passionate about music and performance. Their love for art culminated in a spectacular show that left us in awe.
Before the graduation of the class of 2023, the school organized several offline sharing sessions for them. These students have different paths, but they all shine brightly. They all mentioned the impact clubs have had. A group of people with common passions coming together is like gathering tiny lights to form a brilliant galaxy. I hope that every student can find their passion, connect with others, and shine brightly.
Lastly, find personal value through connections.
In fact, connections are not just about drawing strength but also about giving back. When we learn to connect with the outside world and view it with an open mind, our life’s perspective and vision expand. When we use our talents, passions, and specialties to serve others, change the community, and contribute to society, we feel a sense of personal value. This value becomes an intrinsic motivation, promoting personal growth. I’ve seen students passionate about math share their knowledge with younger students, debate enthusiasts develop critical thinking courses, and MUN students transition into MUN coaching careers. They move from theory to practice, from individual to community, and from the ivory tower to the broader world. This positive external “connection” reflects the proactiveness and responsibility of International Departmentour students as global citizens and embodies the spirit of the new generation.
After sharing this year’s keyword “connection” with the teachers at the all-faculty meeting last week, Mr. Pare, the secondary director, quoted Tom Ford in response: “The most important things in life are the connections you make with others.” Therefore, I look forward to seeing you create more wonderful moments in the new academic year through your connections with others.
Stay Strong! Stay Connected!
Thank you all!
