The Fourth TEDxSCLS Event
第四届TEDxSCLS活动
Lights turned off, eight bells rang, then our hearts raced. As the curtain opens and lights shine onto the red carpet and logo, applause welcomes the host to kick off the show, marking the beginning of the fourth TEDx event at SCLS.
随着灯光渐暗、钟声响起,我们心潮澎湃。当帷幕拉开,灯光照耀舞台,伴着潮水般的掌声,主持人缓步走出,宋庆龄学校第四届TEDx活动正式开始。
Dare To Change
破茧成蝶
For the first time, we invited two guest speakers and welcomed all students, faculty, and parents in the international division to participate in the event. An adorning photo booth, high-quality student artwork, and eye-catching souvenirs decorated our event.
这是我们首次邀请的两位演讲嘉宾,一同参加的还有国际部全体师生和受邀家长。装饰精美的照相亭、天马行空的学生艺术作品以及色彩缤纷的纪念品给活动增添了不少亮点。

05
Elaine Orange
Elaine boldly pointed out how the way of viewing mistakes that society launched was wrong and advocated people to “picture success as a fountain,” in which “some water will inevitably splash out from time to time when making mistakes, but success will continuously replenish when we learn from every mistake.
Elaine大胆指出了社会过分强调错误的现象,并倡导人们“将成功想象成一个喷水池,在犯错时难免会溅出一些水,但当我们从每个错误中吸取教训,成功便会源源不断地送来泉水。”

Ashley, our youngest speaker, shared her story about encountering culture shocks when moving from Singapore to China, combined with psychological concepts to explain how she coped with them.

“体育让女性能够挑战自我,开拓新观点,并保持自信。”
08
Alan Tsoi
Alan, as our final student speaker, told a heart-warming personal story of how he changed his views on the unequal sign between him and the majority, ending his speech by emphasizing how self-love should replace self-loathing when looking in the mirror.
Alan作为最后一位学生演讲者,讲述了自己从自我鄙夷到自爱、自信的心路历程,强调了应该追随内心,而不是迎合大众。
“The unequal sign might be unequal to others, but what only matters is that the unequal sign is equal to you.”
“不等号可能不与其他人相等,但重要的是,不等号对你而言是相等的。”
09
Pete Rogers
Pete ended the show by presenting a passionate speech full of rhetorical questions that guided the audience to the “secret sauce” of self-leadership that enables us to daringly change. Remember to value consistency over intensity, motivate yourself by higher standards, and find gratitude!
Pete以富有激情的演讲结束了活动。他的演讲充满哲学性的反问,引导观众了解自我领导的“秘诀”,使我们能够大胆地作出任何改变。记得要追求长期的回报而非眼前的利益,鼓励自己达成更高的目标,并懂得感恩!
Thank You! 致谢!
The flawlessness of the show could not have happened without all the hard work dedicated by the TEDxSCLS team members. From backstage staff to the speakers out front, the team members demonstrate thoughtfulness and responsibility, and above all, they “dare to change.” Regardless of the sudden pandemic outbreak last December, our team reacted promptly and changed the plans boldly.
TEDx-ers, give yourself a pat on the shoulder!
活动之所以精彩纷呈,是因为每一位TEDxSCLS团队成员的辛勤付出。从后台工作人员到台上的演讲者,每个人都圆满完成了任务。尽管去年十二月疫情突然爆发,但我们的团队反应迅速,大胆改变了原有的计划。TEDx-ers,我们是最棒的!
In addition, we would like to thank the teachers who helped us throughout the preparation process and the audience for being supportive and attentive to our event. Your support ensured the smoothness of the event, and your applause warmed our hearts!

It’s Your Turn to Shine!
现在轮到你大放异彩了!
The fourth TEDxSCLS event is a dare itself. To change does not simply mean to modify, but stands for trusting yourself and being courageous to take a step forward.
第四届TEDxSCLS本身就是一个挑战。改变代表着相信自己,勇于迈出舒适圈。
Holding back and conforming to the norms is not the answer. It is time to stand up for yourself and show the world what you’ve got. Be the change instead of waiting to be changed!
切忌退缩不前、墨守成规,是时候向世界展现你所拥有的一切了。与其等待着改变,不如成为那个变数!期待你们“破茧成蝶”!
See you next year!
明年见!
