Catch the Spirit, We’ve Got Spirit

• Bookmarks: 451697


Beginning from October 28, 2020, AISGs Executive Council (ExCo) decided to celebrate Spirit Wednesdays instead of Spirit Weeks to wholly enjoy students ram spirit. 

 

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, new measures were implemented by the Guangzhou Bureau of Education to prevent the further spread of the virus and ensure everyones safety.

 

One significant change that occurred throughout high school was the adjustments to the schedule, where students were divided by grade levels to physically attend school on designated days. As a result, Wednesday became the only day where students from all grade levels attended school physically, leading to ExCos decision to have Spirit Wednesdays where members of the AISG community could enjoy each others spirit altogether. 

 

Andy H., the president of ExCo, remarked on his decision to celebrate Spirit Wednesdays, commenting, We have to be flexible and adapt to the situation we are currently in. He added that As for now, Wednesday is the best day for us to celebrate students spirit since everybody could participate together.

 

Tony P., a sophomore at AISG, highlighted some drawbacks to having Spirit Wednesdays instead of Spirit weeks, commenting, Since we have spirit days once a week, I often forget to dress up accordingly on [Wednesdays]. He further commented, Its sad how the spiritual mood breaks after one day and doesnt carry on for the whole week.

 

As to date, there have been two weeks of Spirit Wednesdays, where students had the opportunity to showcase their spirit for the beach day and Halloween day. There will be three more Spirit Wednesdays sports day, Rams day, and PJ day for students and faculty members to enjoy each others creative costumes and activities. 

 

Founded in 1981, AISG is the first international school in South China, offering an international curriculum to its students. Guided by Western learning values and principles, AISG places great importance on nurturing future-ready individuals, even amid the pandemic and hybrid learning
