亲爱的青苗家人们，

Welcome home！

新的起点，新的旅程，

总令人充满欣喜与期待！

过去一年实“鼠”不易，

所幸迎来“牛”转乾坤！

今春早发，坤朗乾清，

愿明媚春光唤醒——

新一年的你、我、草木和大地。

如果可以，在新的一年，

我们应该对自己和这个世界：

耐心，再耐心一点

——等待成长；

坦诚，再坦诚一点

——吸纳养分；

勇敢，再勇敢一点

——迎接风雨；

温柔，再温柔一点

——享受生命！

感谢所有青苗家人

为我们共同的青苗家园

所倾注的爱、关心与支持。

带着过往岁月给予的力量，

让我们一起继续加油，

向着崭新的2021辛丑年

——再出发！

Dear BIBS Community,

The last year has been one marked by uncertainty and disruption. So many times during this period we have kept hoping that ‘normal’ is just around the corner, but COVID has been a complex challenge for all of us to come to terms with. But together, shoulder to shoulder we have persevered.

The celebrations for the New Year and the warmth of the coming spring reminds us that renewal and new beginnings are ahead of us.

We hope that you have all enjoyed a wonderful Spring Festival and look forward to the return to school. We hope that the Year of the Ox brings with it strength, stability and optimism for the future.

We thank you all for your support during this past year and look forward to a wonderful 2021 together.
