Preparing for a Journey of Inquiry at BKIK

From framing transdisciplinary units of inquiry to conducting thorough safety checks across every corner of the campus, and from refining our bilingual curriculum to completing first-aid certifications—we uphold the highest standards as we look forward to welcoming you and your child.

A full week prior to the new term, the entire team reunited on campus for an intensive week of professional development and training.

早在开学前，汇悦天启的全体教职团队就已全员归队，展开为期一周的教职员工专业发展与培训。

从超学科探究单元的构架，到校园每一处环境的安全核验；从双语语言课程的精进，到全员急救技能的考评——我们以严谨的标准，静候着与您和孩子的相遇。

A new academic year is never just about turning a page.

Within the IB PYP framework, we gathered to map out the upcoming transdisciplinary units of inquiry—re-examining concepts, themes, and learning pathways to shape the journey ahead.

新学年的课程，从来不是简单地翻开新的一页。

在IB PYP的框架下，我们围绕新学年的超学科探究课程展开讨论，从概念、主题到探究路径，重新梳理孩子即将经历的学习旅程。

We also explored how subjects like language and mathematics can connect meaningfully with children’s real-world experiences.

We firmly believe that great education does more than transfer knowledge. More importantly, it empowers children to ask questions, think critically, express themselves, and build connections with the world around them.

That is why every new academic year is also a fresh start for our teaching team to relearn, reflect, and realign our educational path.

我们也持续讨论语言、数学等课程如何与真实的儿童经验发生连接。因为我们始终相信，好的教育不只是把知识交给孩子。更重要的是，让孩子逐渐学会如何提问、如何思考、如何表达，以及如何与他人建立连接。

所以，每一个新学年的开始，也都是教师团队重新学习、重新校准教育方向的开始。

Just as our curriculum evolves, the physical environment where learning happens deserves equal care. The space itself is an integral part of the learning experience.

Ahead of opening day, our classrooms and shared areas have been thoughtfully refreshed. Learning resources, picture books, display spaces, and classroom environments are all fully prepared.

课程在不断思考与更新，学习发生的空间同样值得被认真对待。学习空间也是课程体验的一部分。

开学前，教室与公共区域正在进行重新整理与布置，学习材料、绘本、展示空间以及班级环境陆续完成更新。

In an IB PYP learning environment, space plays a vital role in supporting children’s growth.

A cosy reading nook, a hands-on exploration station, or a display board celebrating children's ideas can all spark observation, conversation, and inquiry.

We ensure that every space on campus remains open and full of possibilities—allowing the environment to support the children, and the children to shape their environment.

在IB PYP的学习环境中，空间承担着支持儿童学习的重要作用。

一个适合阅读的角落，一个能够自由操作的学习区域，一个展示儿童思考与作品的空间，都可以成为孩子观察、交流、表达与探究的起点。

我们希望校园中的每一个学习空间，都能够保持开放性与可能性，让环境支持儿童，也让儿童参与环境。

Beyond curriculum and environment, safety and order form the foundation of our preparations. Before school begins, we meticulously review every detail across campus.

Classrooms, common areas, and learning materials have been thoroughly checked; safety and procurement protocols reaffirmed; and all staff members have completed medical check-ups and first-aid training.

课程与空间之外，安全与秩序同样是新学年准备的重要部分。开学前，我们也在认真整理校园中的每一个细节。

教室、公共区域、学习材料，一一整理与确认；安全与采购规范再次明确；全体教职员工参与急救培训，并完成健康检查。

For a kindergarten, health and safety are the bedrock of everything we do. We aim to offer children a safe, comfortable, and well-ordered space where they can explore, communicate, and grow with confidence.

对幼儿园而言，安全与健康始终是教育的基础。我们希望为孩子提供一个安全、舒适、有序，同时充满学习可能的校园环境，让他们能够更自在地探索、交流与成长。

Before welcoming the children back to campus, we meet with our parents first.

New families gain deeper insight into BKIKi's educational philosophy, curriculum framework, and class arrangements, while returning families step alongside teachers into the next chapter of their children’s growth.

在孩子正式回到校园之前，我们先与爸爸妈妈见面。

新生家庭进一步了解天启的教育理念、课程体系与班级安排；旧生家庭也与老师一起，走进孩子新的成长阶段。

This gathering is about more than sharing updates for the term—it is about ensuring that home and school stand united before the children begin their new journey.

这一场见面，不只是为了分享新学期的安排，更重要的是，让学校与家庭在孩子真正开始新旅程之前，先站在一起。
