2021年6月21日，我们苏州维多利亚幼儿园迎来了第八届大班毕业生的毕业典礼。这是他们人生的第一次毕业典礼，也是一场充满仪式感的典礼。这一天，每一个人都是最重要的主角，希望他们能够带着这份被重视、被尊重的感觉去迎接人生的下一段旅程。
On June 21st, we celebrated Suzhou Victoria Kindergarten’s 8th graduation. For the children, this was their first graduation, and it was a wonderful celebration of their kindergarten life before they take their next step.
本次毕业典礼的主题为“如果你来到地球”孩子们一个个化身为帅气的宇航员，面向整个宇宙，去介绍着我们赖以生存的美好家园。“亲爱的外星访客，如果你到地球来，这些事情要知道：我们人类，居住在各种各样的地方，生活在各种各样的家里，有着各种形态的家庭。我们每个人都不相同，但我们所有人都很棒。而且，我们一起共享这颗美丽的星球。”老师们为了这次毕业典礼精心准备了满满的祝福和爱意，活动现场被布置的格外温馨，愿你们带着这份感动和记忆，带着希望，开始新的人生旅程！
This year, our theme was “If you come to Earth”. One by one, our K3 students transformed into astronauts as they embarked on a journey to introduce our home, Earth. Through our children, we saw that we share our beautiful planet together. We are all different and we are all beautiful. We come from many different places and different families. The teachers worked hard to prepare for this great show to send the students off with love and blessings as they move on to the next step in their lives.
孩子们带来了精彩的节目表演，生动有趣的《寻梦环游记》，奇幻绝伦的《太空梦》，体现中华传统文化的《少年志》等等，无一不代表着我们逐梦未来的美好向往。
The children shared their wonderful performances with us. “A Dream Journey”, “Young Ambition” and “Space Dream” all represented the traditions of Chinese culture and our dreams for the future.
毕业是什么？是离别吗？是成长吗？当会场上一一响起所有小朋友的名字，再由园长妈妈和嘉宾亲手把毕业证书送到每一个小朋友的手中那一刻，孩子们深切体会到了这份沉甸甸的毕业证书里，承载的是自己美好的未来。
Is graduation a time to say goodbye or a reflection on how we have grown? Is it both? One by one, the children received their graduation certificate from the school Principal, Denise. Each child realized this certificate carried them to the bright future.
小朋友们在幼儿园里经历了许许多多的第一次，这是一段美好旅程的开始。维多利亚的小毕业生们也在这段时间里，不断的收获和成长。在这个特殊的日子里，园长妈妈也带来了一段温暖的毕业寄语。“回顾苏州园办学已经走过八年的历程，八年中我们已经培养了近800位优秀小毕业生，一路走来，我们坚定的以创设一个多元文化的学习社区，激发幼儿能动性，在学习中彰显选择权、发言权、主导权，培养具有全球视野的终生学习者为办学使命，将IB PYP课程与江苏省课程游戏化相融合创设了以儿童为中心的多元整合课程，以哥伦比亚大学TC早期阅读课程为特色，综合促进孩子们全面发展，多年办园成果显著而卓越，在此也要感谢家长们一直以来的信任与支持……”
