This summer, the first-ever Yingya St. Peter's School summer camp officially started, with all members of the teaching staff working together to provide participating students with five days of gains and growth, passion and release, sweat and laughter, making this summer particularly colorful and meaningful.

　　The core of Yingya St. Peter's School’s education is to pursue academic excellence and outstanding extracurricular activities. At the closing ceremony of the first summer camp, everyone looked forward to the joyful atmosphere with countless exciting performances including music, drama, martial arts, and art. These wonderful performances marked the end of this summer camp and ushered in the new semester with unlimited passion.

　　The essence of education is not in form but in heart. We always hope that children at Yingya St. Peter's School can not only access endless knowledge but also touch the truest self; we hope that they are academically excellent and also master essential skills for daily life; we hope that they are free, happy, sunny, and confident!

　　During this event, students experienced pure British boarding life and communicated with partners from different schools and cultural backgrounds. For the majority of students, participating in this colorful and meaningful summer camp not only provides academic learning opportunities but also includes interesting team building and multicultural exploration. Let’s take a look back at this extraordinarily colorful summer surprise journey.

　　Through a combination of liberal arts courses and academic courses, students continuously expand their knowledge. Teachers attract students’ attention through topic selection and guide them to start thinking quickly, becoming proactive learners and thoughtful researchers.

　　Performing arts is a diversified field containing endless exciting explorations. In dance, music, and drama courses, professional teachers in various fields guide children to experience the rich connotations of art.

　　Every day, children are busy with classes such as music, drama, prop design, and art production. In these colorful classrooms, they can freely express themselves while facing various challenges.

　　Teachers spare no effort to impart years of aesthetic experience, taking children on a journey to explore the charm of different artistic fields, while paying attention to each child’s areas of expertise, enabling them to enjoy the joy of collective learning and rehearsals with their passion and talent.

　　STEAM is also one of the children’s favorite courses at the summer camp. Teachers prepare various “mysterious” experiments and invention manufacturing, allowing students to explore the mystery and beauty of technology like magicians.

　　Compared to the traditional classroom teaching method of "knowledge points", the core characteristic of STEAM learning is to operate various knowledge skills in different ways of thinking, and through self exploration, thinking, and verification, learn to independently find answers while achieving deeper learning.

　　The non-material cultural heritage printing course encourages students to display their creativity; Chinese ancient architecture embodies the historical civilization of China for thousands of years, creating a poetic home for everyone. The architectural aesthetics of students are becoming increasingly brilliant.

　　The diverse sports projects and practice methods are one of the characteristics of Yingya St. Peter's School’s physical education education. They can help children improve their physical fitness while enjoying sports. At the same time, appropriate group games are played every day to cultivate leadership, teamwork, and perseverance qualities.

　　We are glad to see that after five days of summer camp, children have made many new friends and gained precious friendships in the “co-growth” sports classroom.

　　One of the important goals of this summer camp is to make students deeply realize that as a member of Yingya St. Peter's School, they should connect with each other and go hand in hand. During the time they spend together in British boarding life and an environment that promotes lifelong friendship development, they get to know each other from scratch and maintain contact.

　　The warmth of education is not only in the care of clothing, food, housing, and transportation, but also in the cultivation of children's personality, abilities, and habits. Teachers will transform into masters of time management, often meticulously arranging students' time to every minute, urging them to develop good work and rest habits. Strict time arrangements and rules ensure that 9 hours of sleep are guaranteed, while striving to make every boarding student feel the meaning of time and develop self-discipline habits.

　　Boarding system in Yingya St. Peter's School means that children will have more time outside the classroom to complete more curriculum experiences beyond the classroom under the guidance of professional teachers. The combination of academic courses, CCA characteristic courses, and boarding courses complement each other, enabling students to master time management and multitasking management skills while facing various challenges.

　　The gains brought to children by this summer school course and experience are like seeds, nurtured by love over time, which will help Yingya St. Peter's School's students become towering trees and see a farther world.
