新金山中文学校校长信箱 （01/09/2022）Xin Jin Shan Chinese Language and Culture School Principal’s Message
各位老师、学生和家长：
大家好！春天到了！首先，有不少家长来询问春天假期的中华文化园活动。这个春令营活动9月19日-22日在我校Mt Waverley总校举办（9月23日公众假期在丹顶龙山橡树庄园家庭日自愿参加），活动主办方是澳大利亚常青藤文化书院和上海常青藤学校，报名早鸟优惠本周日（9月5日）结束。了解具体情况请点击: 春令营
其次，我校3-9年学生的华文水平测试将在下周举办。为做好这次华测工作，学校专门举办教师培养，明确华测内容和意义，了解华测的题型和答题方法，并且会在本周末跟所有学生讲解。需要跟大家明确指出的是：华测是如何界定海外华裔青少年中文水平的一种新方式，更是一种尝试，它检验的是中文阅读和理解的能力。因此，请所有参加华测的学生、老师和家长们不要有顾虑，相信我们的学生会如实反映出自己掌握中文的能力的水平。
还有，今天跟大家报告一项非常重要的事宜：教育部为了保障所有租借公校校园的单位和机构人员的安全，对我校的校园安全管理和教职员工及学生和家长的安全提出了一系列的要求，由出租方–Mt Waverley中学委派一家专业的公司进行监督。现将以下相关规定告知大家，请所有人自觉遵守，为我们共同创建一个安全健康的学习和工作环境。
- 所有教职员工在开始工作至少8小时前不得饮酒。严禁在工作期间饮酒或因饮酒影响到工作的行为（成年人饮酒后不可进入校园）。
- 严禁在工作期间使用或持有违禁药品的行为，一经发现，会被要求立即离开校园，同时学校会向警方报告可能出现违禁药品的情况。如果员工因身体原因正在服用有依赖性的药物，必须向学校备案。
- 在校园内或校园入口处四米之内都禁止吸烟。
- 学校教职员工、学生家长或进入校园的访客不得带狗进入校园区域。如果狗在主人不知道的情况下擅自进入校园，狗主人必须在获知情况后马上为狗带上牵引绳，并尽快将狗带离校园。
- 所有进入校园的车辆必须购买车辆保险。在校园时，驾车人员和乘车人员都必须遵守维州交通规则，而且只有持有效驾照证件的人员才可以驾驶车辆；所有车辆必须遵守校园内的交通指示牌。如果没有看到交通指示牌，在校园内行驶的车辆限速5公里/小时。
校园安全关系到学校社区的每一位成员，请大家务必加倍注意。
最后，跟大家报告一下：我校学生代表在刚刚结束的“五大洲华裔青少年汉字棋邀请赛”中取得好成绩，林恩馨等7位同学获得一等奖（一等奖共计23位）、林明哲等9位同学获得二等奖（二等奖合计59位）、张芸菲等13位同学获得三等奖（三等奖合计75位）。我校参赛学生获得的奖项在本次邀请赛中排名第一。在此，向所有获奖学生和老师表示祝贺，向陪伴他们参赛和无数次训练的家长们表示祝贺和感谢！
好，我们周末校园见！

Principal’s Message
Dear teachers, students and parents,
Spring is coming. Many parents have contacted us enquiring about the arrangement of Chinese Culture Camp during term break. We are happy to let you know that the Chinese Culture Camp scheduled 19-22 September on the senior campus of Mt Waverley (the Oak Farm Family Day on Mt Dandenong on 23 September is an optional event) is organised by IVY Culture and Shanghai IVY School and the Early Bird benefit ends on this coming Sunday 5 September. Please click the link below for details: Chinese Culture Camp
The Chinese proficiency test Hua Ce is scheduled next weekend for year 3-9 students. We have organised a special training this week for year 3-9 teachers helping them understand the benefits of the test, the styles of questions and how to answer the questions correctly and they would then explain them to their students this weekend. I would like to make it clear that Hua Ce is a new method of evaluating the Chinese language proficiency of students outside China in Chinese reading and understanding. Therefore, don’t be afraid of the test. We have to trust our students and they would present how much they have grasped in their Chinese language learning.
Moreover, I would like to report a very important issue to you today. To ensure the safety of all the campus users, Mt Waverley Secondary College has made a series of regulations regarding the safety of our admin staff, teachers, students and parents which would be supervised by a professional company. Please read and observe the following regulations carefully to create a safe and healthy learning and working environment for all of us.
- Consumption of alcohol should cease a minimum of 8 hours before commencement of work. Drunkenness or consuming alcohol whilst working or in the school workplace and the consumption of alcohol to the extent that a person is affected when they commence work is strictly forbidden (adults after consuming alcohol are not allowed to enter the campus).
- The abuse of illicit and medication drugs or being in possession of any illicit drug or drugs of dependence without a medical prescription, whilst working is strictly forbidden and will lead to instant dismissal from the school site.Where the above is reported to or known to management, the continued engagement will be subject to review. Police will be advised of suspicion of the presence of illegal drugs.When consuming prescriptions drugs or over the counter drugs, advise your employer/manager if you are on medication.
- No smoking is allowed on campus or within four metres of any entrance of the school.
- No staff, parent or visitor to the school will bring a dog onto the campus.In the event of a dog being brought onto the campus prior to its owners’ awareness of this protocol, the owner will ensure the dog is physically restrained immediately he/she becomes aware of this requirement and remove the dog at the earliest possible time.
- All vehicles, whether company or private, must be covered by appropriate insurance and must comply with Victorian Road Rules whenever used on campus and all drivers and passengers must adhere to these road rules.Only people with current driver’s licences and relevant regulatory licences or permits will be permitted to drive vehicles.Vehicles entering school grounds must adhere to all traffic signage. Where there is no signage, vehicles are to move at 5km/hr on campus.
Each school community member would benefit from the safety of school campus. So please observe the relevant regulations carefully.
At last, I would like to announce excellent achievement our students have achieved in the first Chinese Character Chess Competition: Enxin Lin and another 6 students have obtained the First Prize (out of 23 places), Mingzhe Lin and another 8 students have obtained the Second Prize (out of 59 places) and Yunfei Zhang and another 12 students have obtained the Third Prize (out of 75 places). XJS students have ranked the first place in the overall score leader board. I would like to present my warm congratulation to all the outperformed students, their teachers and of course their parents who have supported them all the way in the training and competition. Well-done!
Let’s see you again this weekend on campus.
Yours sincerely,
Kevin Hu, Principal
