Principal’s Message
Great are the works of the Lord,
studied by all who delight in them.
Psalm 111:2
Have you ever marveled at the stunning logic of a mathematics equation, the beauty of geographical features, the intricacies of language patterns or the aesthetics of a landscape painting? Christians believe our God is our Creator, infinitely wise and powerful, and He has created all these for His glory. His intellect and might are on full display each and every day, and we get to study about them in school through classroom lessons! Man is also one of God’s creations and he has devised many amazing technologies and created works of art and science that have made life better for all. As we are made in God’s image, we believe the thoughts and ideas we have are a gift from God. Hence, knowing ourselves, our personalities and emotions help us to understand God as well. The joy of learning in school is the joy of learning about our creator God who has given us all things to enjoy!
In Psalm 111, the psalmist extols and praises the works of God and God himself, encouraging us to fear God and to obey Him, which brings wisdom to those who hear. In this vein, our theme for 2025 is “God’s Good Works” We are privileged to learn and discover them each and every day through our school experiences.
At AHS, our hope is that all our students know that day to day, they come with the purpose of discovering more about the world around them by studying God’s good works, asking deeper questions of the ideas they encounter each day and growing their sense of marvel of the world our God has made, and by extension, of God Himself. It is this sense of purpose that will drive their learning and sense of care and excellence in all that they do.
We also hope that they will grow in the love of the people around them. God is love and He has commanded us to love others. We show our love for our school, society and country by finding out more about those around them and serving others’ needs. “What are you doing for others?” remains a clarion reminder for AHS students to go beyond self to serve society around them, using their talents and gifts to make life better for everyone.
Lastly, we want them to discover their passion in life. AHS is a busy school, and our students get involved in a wide variety of activities through their academic, CCA, VIA and student leadership journeys with us. Whether their love is grown in a sport, an aesthetic expression, an act of service or an academic pursuit, we invite them to grow that interest and go deeper into their interest, fueled by youthful curiosity and energy to discover and grow. Passion fuels this self-initiated discovery journey and we aspire that all our AHS students have an idea of their life passion by the time they pass through our gates.
With these 3 Ps in mind, we hope that all our students will soar on wings like eagles in life this year!
诗篇111:2
“耶和华的作为至大,凡喜悦他的人必寻求考察。”
您是否曾惊叹于数学方程的精妙逻辑,地理地貌的壮丽,语言模式的复杂性,或山水画的艺术美感?基督徒相信我们的上帝是我们的创造主,具有无限智慧和能力,祂创造这一切都是为了彰显祂的荣耀。祂的智慧和大能每日都在彰显,而我们可以通过课堂学习来研究这些!人类也是上帝的创造,人类发明了许多令人惊叹的技术,创造了使生活更美好。由于我们是按照上帝的形象创造的,我们相信我们所拥有思想和观念是来自上帝的礼物。 因此,了解自己的个性和情感也有助于我们了解上帝。 学校学习的乐趣在于学习关于创造我们的上帝的乐趣,他给了我们一切享受!
在诗篇111篇中,诗人颂赞上帝的作为和上帝本身,鼓励我们敬畏并顺服上帝,这将带来智慧。本着这种精神,我们2025年的主题是“上帝的美善作为”。 我们有幸通过学校的经历每天学习和发现它们。
我们希望所有学生都明白,他们每天来到学校都带着目标,通过研究上帝的美善作为来更多地了解周围的世界,对每天遇到的想法进行更深入的探讨,增进对上帝所创造的世界的惊叹,从而更认识上帝自己。正是这种目标感将推动他们的学习,以及在所做的一切事上保持关怀之心和追求卓越。
我们也希望他们能在对周围人群的爱中成长。上帝就是爱,祂命令我们要爱他人。通过了解并服务他人的需要来表达对学校、社会和国家的爱“你为他人做了什么?”仍然是圣公会学生超越自我,服务于周围社会的明确提醒,运用他们的才能和天赋来改善每个人的生活。
最后,我们希望他们找到自己的人生热忱。圣公会中学是一所充满活力和机会的学校,学生通过学术、辅助课程、德育和领导力项目积极参与各种活动。无论他们的热忱是在运动、艺术表现、服务行动还是学术追求中成长,我们都邀请他们在好奇心和青春活力的推动下,深化这些兴趣并继续探索成长。热忱推动着这种自主发现之旅,我们希望所有圣公会学生在离开校园时都能找到自己的人生热忱。
怀着这三个”P”(目标Purpose、人群People、热忱Passion),我们希望所有圣公会学生今年都能如鹰展翅高飞!
