The Future Lab Art Exhibition at the Shanghai West Bund Art Centre showcased the creative talents of students from the Western International School of Shanghai (WISS) alongside other prestigious international schools in Shanghai and universities from the region. This event highlighted the importance of art in addressing global challenges, particularly through the lens of sustainability.
Collaborative Environment
WISS students participated in this exhibition with peers from top international schools, creating a vibrant atmosphere of collaboration and creativity. This gathering allowed students to display their works and facilitated exchanges of artistic techniques and expression among diverse educational institutions.
Award-Winning Contributions
Among the notable achievements at the exhibition, WISS students Cherry Lin, Anastasiia Alekseeva, and Candice Zhao received awards for their outstanding artworks. Their pieces, created under the theme Guarding the Future, emphasized innovative approaches to sustainability through various mediums, including digital art, 3D art, and 2D art. This recognition highlights their individual talents and reflects the high standards of artistic education at WISS.
Thematic Focus on Sustainability
The theme Guarding the Future aligns with global initiatives aimed at promoting sustainable cities as part of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). Students from WISS and other institutions used their artistic expressions to address critical issues such as climate change and urban development. By doing so, they contributed to a broader conversation about how art can inspire action and awareness regarding sustainable practices.
WISS's support and participation in this event underscores the school's commitment to fostering creativity and global citizenship among its students and encouraged meaningful dialogues about sustainability and community responsibility.

拥抱多样性： 全球创新学习联盟会议在新西兰奥克兰举行
全球创新学习联盟（GAIL）是一个著名的学校网络，致力于促进教育领域的创新、合作和文化交流。 上海西华外籍人员子女学校（WISS）很荣幸成为全球创新学习联盟（GAIL）的成员，并兴奋地宣布将参加即将在新西兰奥克兰举行的全球创新学习联盟会议。此次会议为上海西方国际学校的学生提供了一次难得的机会，他们将在校长 David Edwards 先生、学术与创新部主任 Timothy Pyeon 先生和设计教师 Nwanneka Okwuosa 女士的陪同下，与其他 GAIL 成员学校共同促进多元化发展。
在中断四年之后，GAIL 会议将在新西兰奥克兰汇聚来自全球各地的教育工作者、管理人员和学生。今年的会议将特别关注多样性，承认多样性为教育机构带来的巨大价值。接受多元化观点、文化和思想的重要性无论怎样强调都不为过，GAIL 的目标是增强教育工作者创造包容性学习环境的能力。
WISS 始终站在倡导多元化和培养学生全球思维的最前沿。学校曾在 2019 年主办过 GAIL 会议，因此对这一活动的意义并不陌生。在 David Edwards、Timothy Pyeon 和 Nwanneka Okwuosa 等主要代表的陪同下，WISS 的学生将有宝贵的机会与来自其他 GAIL 成员学校的同学合作、学习和分享自己的独特经历。
本次会议的主要关注点是多样性，与会者可以期待一个深入探讨文化、种族、语言和社会多样性各个层面的丰富活动。研讨会、小组讨论和互动环节将为与会者提供在自己的学校创建包容性环境所需的工具和知识。会议旨在培养跨文化能力，弘扬学生和教育工作者的不同文化背景。
GAIL 会议之所以如此具有影响力，其中一个关键因素是它强调合作。与会者有机会参与合作项目，交流促进多样性和包容性的想法和最佳做法。通过这些互动，与会者将获得宝贵的见解和创新策略，并将其应用于各自的学校社区。
对于 WISS 的学生和更广泛的 GAIL 社区来说，在新西兰奥克兰举行的 GAIL 会议将是一次难忘的活动。当他们沉浸在一个多元、包容的环境中时，与会者将学到关于同理心、尊重和文化交流之美的宝贵经验。这次会议无疑将成为通过教育创造一个更加和谐和宽容的社会的垫脚石。
在即将于新西兰奥克兰举行的会议期间，WISS 与其他 GAIL 成员学校一道，热切希望为有关多样性的讨论做出贡献。通过参与此次全球对话，学校重申了其促进文化理解、拥抱多样性和推动教育创新的承诺。毫无疑问，GAIL 会议将成为积极变革的催化剂，教育工作者和学生将通力合作，共同建设一个重视和赞美我们丰富差异的未来。
