1. Message from Mr. Nicholas Forde, Secondary Principal

Thank you to all parents who attended yesterday’s ‘virtual’ Back to School Night. As we continue

to build a culture of care, guidance and achievement in Secondary, you will notice the high profile

of our Grade Level Leaders at Back to School Night. Our focus on pastoral care and well-being

instead of curriculum matters at the beginning of the year is deliberate. Without strong

relationships, effective learning cannot take place. Curriculum and assessment matters are taken

up in context for different Grade Levels and at an individualized level via Parent Teacher Student

Conferences from October onwards.

Today marks the ‘end of the beginning’ with the completion of the first 10-day cycle of the

Secondary timetable. This period is critical for students, as it is where they will ‘find their level’

based on what they experience in their first few lessons. Every year, we emphasize the

importance of teachers taking time to get to know the students, their names, and to communicate

clearly their expectations and establish lesson routines. Above all, we will communicate that we

care for our students through what we say and how we say it. Great learning only happens once

students see and know that they have a trusted adult who cares about and is interested in them

as a person.

Mr. Nicholas Forde

Secondary Principal

7. ISF Development Office

Welcome back to ISF! We hope that you have all enjoyed a good summer break.

We are now making plans for the biggest event on our school calendar - Jam

2021. Our annual Jam is a wonderful manifestation of the spirit of ISF. We

have all been disappointed that circumstances have caused the cancellation

of the most recent events, but we are more determined than ever to revive

this tradition and host a celebration this year! Of course, the health and well-

being of all is our first priority, so we have two plans for this year, depending

on circumstances.

Plan A

Jam 2021 (November 20): “Community & Celebration”

Our annual is a day when we unite to celebrate with the entire ISF community. We are now

channeling all of our energy into preparing for “Jam 2021” and looking into a morning and

afternoon Jam session. As previously planned, the Personalized Handprint Tiles Campaign

2020 will take place, in addition to a range of other games and activities.

Plan B

Jam 2021 (November 20): “A Student Jam”

If we cannot hold our beloved annual Jam, we plan to hold a Student Jam on that day. This will

be geared towards facilitating an enjoyable, team building and active day for all ISF Pre-School

and Academy students. Again, we will monitor the situation and keep parents and students

informed as early as possible. Please rest assured that we will only hold an event under all

safety precautions and guidelines. We are indeed grateful for your patience and understanding.

In a time of hardship for many, we rely on the culture of generosity and selflessness that is unique

to the wonderful ISF community. Please do not hesitate to reach out for support or assistance at

any time. We are here to help you.

More details will be shared in the upcoming school circulars.

Stay strong, stay positive, and look after each other. We will get through this together!

Registration for the talk will open on Monday, September 6 at www.isfpta.org .

Synopsis:

A founder of Western History and an outstanding representative of Humanism, Herodotus

is honored as the “Father of History”. In his passionate lecture, Professor Zhang Xingang

will discuss the role and significance of history, how to study history, and to emulate

Herodotus by scrutinizing the past. In studying history, new generations gain wisdom and

a deeper understanding of human nature. History can help us grasp the causes of

development and change in cultures and societies such as the reasons for the rise and fall

of heroes and great empires. Understanding history can help us plan for a better future by

avoiding mistakes that have already been made in the past.

Speaker: Professor Zhang Xingang

Professor Zhang is a professor at the School of History and Culture of Shandong University.

He holds a Doctorate Degree in Law and a Post-Doctorate Degree of History at Peking

University. He was an Assistant Professor at the Western Classics Center and the

thought (particularly ancient Greek and early modern political thought), and ancient Greek

and Roman history, political theory. His publications include “Friendship and Community: A

Study of Greek Political Thought” (Peking University Press, 2020), and “State and Liberty:

Quentin Skinner’s Lectures in China” (Peking University Press, 2018). He has also

translated books such as “Platonic Political Theory”, “Plato’s Second Best Society” and

many other articles on the history of Western political thought and ancient history.

12.3. Used Uniform Recycling Drive Continues

ISF Academy PTA and The ISF Academy Sustainability Council will continue to collect and

recycle/upcycle used uniforms throughout this academic year. We have collected almost

7,000 items of clothing weighing over 1,700kg since this May. During the last few weeks of

the past academic year and throughout the summer, uniforms were collected, sorted,

cataloged, boxed and ultimately saved from landfill by a combination of commercial textile

recycling, textile waste-to-electricity incineration and charity donations.

Secondary School Circular 中學家長通告

Due to construction works in the C Block near the Primary Gate, uniform collection will

continue near the Secondary Library in Charles Kao Square. Let’s keep the effort going!

Please note that the recycling/upcycling process requires careful sorting, weighing and

inventorying of the uniforms collected. Please do not drop off non-Academy uniforms and

clothing as it will greatly complicate the work of the Sustainability Council and volunteers.

1. 中學校長訊息

感謝所有家長昨天參加我們的虛擬返校夜活動。正當我們繼續在中學建立一個富關懷、指導及協

助學生取得成就的文化,你也許在返校夜中留意到我們一班備受矚目的年級組長們。我們已商討

了在學年初將會專注於培育關愛與福祉多於課程的事宜。沒有緊密的關係,便不能發展有效的學

習。課程和評估的事宜將在十月的家長教師學生三方會議中與各年級的個別家庭討論。

今天標誌著「開始的結束」 完成了中學課表的首個十天循環週。這時期對學生來說至關重要,因

為他們會通過頭幾節課的經驗而「找到自己的水平」。每學年,我們強調教師要花時間了解學生、

記得他們的名字、清楚地傳達對他們的期望,並建立上課常規的重要性。最重要的一點,是通過

我們所說的話和表達方式來傳達我們對學生的關心。卓越的學習只會建立在學生看到並知道他們

被一個值得信賴的成年人關心,並對他們感到有興趣的基礎上。

Nicholas Forde 先生

中學校長

歡迎回到弘立書院!相信大家都度過了一個愉快的暑假。

我們正著手籌備本校最盛大的年度活動「Jam 2021」,美妙呈現出真正的弘

立精神。我們對於近期活動因目前狀況取消而感到失望,但我們決意恢復這

傳統並於今年舉辦慶典!當然,所有人的健康和福祉是我們的首要考慮,故

此我們會有兩個方案,而最終方案將按當時情況決定 。

方案 A

Jam 2021(11 月 20 日):「社群和慶典」

眾所周知,年度 Jam 是弘立社群的重點活動,亦是我們與整個弘立社群歡聚的一天。我們現正全

力籌備及研究上午及下午分段舉行的 Jam 2021。按原定計劃,當天除了安排一系列遊戲和活動

外,還會舉行「留下你的手印」瓷磚活動 2020。

方案 B

Jam 2021(11 月 20 日):「學生同樂」

若受大家喜愛的年度 Jam 未能舉行,我們將於當天舉行學生同樂,為所有弘立幼稚園及弘立書院

的同學們締造充滿愉快、團結精神及活力的一天。我們會密切注視疫情發展,並盡早公佈有關詳

情。請放心,我們保證只會在安全的情況下舉辦活動,在此感謝你的耐心和理解。

在這艱難時期,我們有賴得到弘立社群慷慨無私的精神支持,這是弘立社群的優秀象徵。如需尋

求支持或幫助,請隨時與我們聯繫,我們會一直相伴。

注意:衞生防護中心強烈呼籲大眾減少社交接觸,護己護人。因此,即使舉辦學生同樂活動,我

們亦會安排學生分級出席。

新剛教授在他充滿激情的講座中,將帶領我們一起跟隨希羅多德,用審視的目光投向過

去,了解甚麼是歷史,歷史有甚麼作用和意義,以及如何學好歷史。通過學習歷史,可

以增長智慧學識,同時深入了解人性,讓新一代知曉人類社會的發展脈絡,還有文化及

社會的變遷,從而探究偉大的帝國和英雄因何盛極而衰,反思成敗得失。

講者:張新剛教授

張教授是山東大學歷史文化學院教授,他亦是北京大學法學博士及歷史學系博士,曾擔

任北京大學西方古典學中心、歷史學系助理教授。其研究領域為西方倫理政治思想(特

12.3. 舊校服回收活動繼續進行

弘立書院家教會和弘立書院可持續發展委員會將在本學年繼續努力收集和回收/升級再

造舊校服。自今年 5 月以來,我們已經收集近 7,000 件重量超過 1,700 公斤的舊校服。

在上學年的最後數週和暑假期間,我們收集了這些原本會被棄置於垃圾堆填區的舊校

服,並進行分類、編目及裝箱程序,最終用作商業紡織品回收、紡織廢料焚燒發電和慈

善捐贈。

由於小學閘口附近的 C 大樓正進行施工,我們將繼續在高錕廣場中學圖書館旁收集舊校

服。讓我們繼續努力回收!

請注意,校服的回收/升級再造過程中需要對收集的校服進行仔細分類、秤重和盤點。

請不要混入非本校校服和其他服裝,以免加重可持續發展委員會和義工們的工作。
