“嘉年華”是起源于歐洲的一種民間狂歡節(jié)，相當(dāng)于中國(guó)的“廟會(huì)”，嘉年華是對(duì)狂歡節(jié)的音譯。這次在我校的嘉年華活動(dòng)取得空前的成功。

　　A “Carnival” is defined as a type of folk festival originating in Europe and is very similar to a “temple fair” which was founded in China. The summer carnival held at our school on the 14th of June, 2019, was a great success.

　　跳蚤市場(chǎng)琳瑯滿(mǎn)目：有收藏多年奇異礦石、繽紛的海底貝殼;有科技感十足的平衡車(chē)、遙控迷你升降機(jī);有和父母一起手工制作的牛軋?zhí)�、風(fēng)味水果、壽司飯團(tuán);也有開(kāi)闊視野，增強(qiáng)學(xué)習(xí)能力的英語(yǔ)繪本、偵探書(shū)籍等等。讓人驚喜的是，大多數(shù)物品折價(jià)銷(xiāo)售、甚至是低于成本價(jià)銷(xiāo)售。為什么會(huì)這樣呢?因?yàn)檠�，這還是一場(chǎng)義賣(mài)性質(zhì)的跳蚤市場(chǎng)呢。據(jù)初步統(tǒng)計(jì)，本次跳蚤市場(chǎng)義賣(mài)捐贈(zèng)數(shù)額超過(guò)6000元。這意味著，所有參與“買(mǎi)賣(mài)”的家長(zhǎng)、老師和學(xué)生都奉獻(xiàn)出一片愛(ài)心。

　　The flea market was a veritable feast for the eyes:Collections of exotic minerals, colorful seashells, Hi-Tech balancing vehicles and remote controlled cars, hand-made candies, diced fruit, parents’ skilful handiwork and sushi rice balls. Also on sale were English picture books, reading books and detective books to capture the students’ imagination, enhance our students’ vocabulary and their English skills. Surprisingly, most items were on sale at discounted prices…..why? Aaah..…it’s because this flea market’s proceeds are to be donated to charities. Preliminary reports suggest that the donations amount to more than 6000 Yuan! This is a clear indication to us that our students, teachers and parents are involved in the “business” of love…

　　穿過(guò)長(zhǎng)廊、來(lái)到大廳，竟然與校內(nèi)快閃表演不期而遇。炙熱的鼓聲、迎面而來(lái)。旋風(fēng)一樣，似飛揚(yáng)的流蘇;黃土一樣，是穩(wěn)健的腳步;火花一樣，是閃射的瞳仁;斗牛一樣，是鏗鏘的節(jié)奏。美得壯觀，讓人嘆為觀止。

　　From the market outside, we heard music ring out and were drawn to the lobby indoors, where a “flash” show began. The beat of drums, flushed faces, the amazing performances of the little actors in the “Wizard of Oz”, the graceful dancers, singers and musicians-all of the shows were magnificent and amazing. Our students are so talented!

　　趣味游戲活動(dòng)在室外中庭舉行，一共有10個(gè)項(xiàng)目，錯(cuò)落有致的“堆在一起”，像是一個(gè)縮小版本的“迪士尼樂(lè)園”。

　　In the outdoor atrium, interesting and challenging game activities are carefully monitored by teachers. The 10 unique activities are scattered around in picturesque disorder, like some sort of mini “Disneyland”.

　　釋放壓力的蹦床、指壓板組成的“魔鬼賽道”......學(xué)生們手持簽到卡，又像是來(lái)到“闖關(guān)版本”的“歡樂(lè)谷”，他們逐一體驗(yàn)，較后還根據(jù)“獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)簽章”獲得心儀的學(xué)習(xí)獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)用品。

　　There is the trampoline, ring toss and the “Devil Track”, a pressure track racecourse….students clutch their registration papers as they eagerly await their turn, overcoming challenges and completing fun obstacle courses.

　　嘉年華結(jié)束后，其影響遠(yuǎn)未結(jié)束。我校宣傳組收到以下家長(zhǎng)留言：

　　Afterwards, the impact of the event is still felt as the parents gave their feedback:

　　G2Jackie媽媽?zhuān)簩W(xué)校此次活動(dòng)舉辦得既有教育意義又有活動(dòng)意義，孩子們都越來(lái)越優(yōu)秀。希望他們會(huì)成為全面發(fā)展、面向世界的中國(guó)好青年。

　　Grade 2 student, Jackie’s mother: “This school event has been both educational and meaningful, and the students are improving day by day. I hope that they will become well-rounded young people in China, with an international vision.”

　　G5Charles媽媽?zhuān)捍舜挝液臀业暮⒆訁⒓恿藢W(xué)校組織的跳蚤市場(chǎng)，感受到學(xué)校嚴(yán)謹(jǐn)細(xì)致的管理風(fēng)格。學(xué)校組織本次活動(dòng)的老師要求所有參與者不得還價(jià)，促使我們進(jìn)展順利。在這個(gè)過(guò)程中，我充當(dāng)孩子的助理，感受到孩子的成長(zhǎng)，他能對(duì)前來(lái)咨詢(xún)的“消費(fèi)者”對(duì)答如流，看到孩子舉止得體、進(jìn)退有禮的樣子，我感到非常欣慰。嘉年華于我，也是一場(chǎng)良好的親子互動(dòng)。謝謝學(xué)校提供平臺(tái)。

　　Charles, a Grade 5 student’s mom had this to say: “ This time, my child and I participated in the flea market and were very impressed with the meticulous planning and management style of the school. The teachers who organized this activity, asked all participants not to bargain so as to ensure the smooth progress of the event. In this process, I acted as an assistant to my child and was amazed at his growth and maturity. He was able to respond to the “consumer’s” requests and questions when they came to purchase. I was very gratified to see the children behave appropriately and politely. The carnival was also a great parent-child activity. Thank you for providing the platform for this interaction.”

　　G8Li媽媽?zhuān)罕敬渭文耆A雖然因?yàn)橛惺旅β担�不能到�?chǎng)。但是通過(guò)孩子和去現(xiàn)場(chǎng)的孩子外公的反饋以及其他家長(zhǎng)的轉(zhuǎn)發(fā)圖片來(lái)看，感覺(jué)學(xué)校舉辦的空前成功。下次一定會(huì)前來(lái)參加這么有意義的活動(dòng)。

　　A Grade 8 student, Li’s mother said: “Unfortunately I was too busy to attend the carnival, but from the feedback of my child and the grandparents who were there, as well as photos shared by other parents, I feel that the carnival was an unprecedented success. Next time I will definitely attend such a meaningful event.”
