表演时间虽然短暂，但IB学子们自信青春、多才多艺的风采却深深地给我们留下了印象，这都得益于IB全人教育。

IB教育的核心是全人教育。在广州外国语学校爱莎文华IBDP课程，除了学术课程，学生们有机会参与IB课程与广州外国语学校共同提供超50门CCA（延伸课堂）及丰富多彩的校园活动，涵盖人文、理科、社科、艺术、体育等各领域，促进学生在音乐、体育、艺术、人文、科技等方面的深入探索，开拓创新性的思维、观点和表达方式，也让学生充分发挥特长和想象力，在已有知识技能的基础上寻求突破和创新，成为独一无二的个体。

The spring breeze is blowing, the sun is shining brightly, and the campus is full of busy students. Outside the classroom, a group of energetic teenagers gathered in the Global Plaza in the afternoon to show their talents. The students at Guangzhou Foreign Language School ISA Wenhua IB Diploma Programme performed songs and dances in the IB special session of "Boya Youth Talent Show". Their confident and spirited performances all demonstrated the comprehensive development of the IB students.

Next, let’s review the wonderful performances of our students together!

Cecilia Zhang and Max Deng chorused the song of "Lover" by American singer Taylor Swift. The emotional performance presented the attitude of "looking at everything in life with a romantic perspective". The journey of growing up is always full of thorns. We could only benefit from overcoming difficulties.

Accompanied by the dynamic rhythm, Hamila Liang and Wendy Jiang danced the Kpop dance "Antifragile". Their powerful and rhythmic dance movements and bright eyes conveyed the determination of the young generation to face the difficulties and challenges while growing up. They see the hard times as a stimulus to grow and become stronger.

Jesse Sun sang the song "Waving Though a Window" from the healing musical "To Evan Hansen", leading the audience to think about the scene when young people are eager to be heard but cannot be heard. The melodious music sounded, touching the emotions of the audience, making people feel sympathetic to the song and sing along unconsciously.

Olivia Tang sang a romantic English song "Perfect". The soft melody was warm and moving, the soulful singing was touching, and the romantic song perfectly presented the fairy tale of love.

Sophia Zhai performed a solo of the theme song of the movie "Fleet of Time". What the movie describes is the puppy love in adolescence that ends in separation, but what is sung here is mourning the friendship fading away in adolescence. The melancholy melody evokes the audience"s sympathy for the separation from friends and the fading of friendship in adolescence, and every note touches the audience"s heart.

After a few ballads, a relaxed and pleasant rhythm changed the atmosphere of the scene and ignited the atmosphere of the talent show. Ivan Zhang, Jerry Li, and Adam Tang brought a rap song " Vol.Flightin" to express their best wishes to G12 students who are about to graduate from IB Diploma Programme this year and enter their desired university, wishing them a bright future.

Max Deng sang the song "I Don"t Wanna Be You Anymore". Just like how the original singer Billie Eilish found her way in the face of the uncertainty of life, and regained control of herself in music, Max"s singing also sang the inner voice of the Generation Z: don"t be defined, don"t be defined by only one standard, and be brave and be yourself.

Valery Zhou and Cecilia Zhang sang together the song "Unbreakable Love ", with a beautiful melody and harmony, telling a souful story. The singing of the two students was very touching and left a deep impression on the audience.

In the end, Julia Peng brought the classic song "Love Story" by Taylor Swift. Life is not about how to survive the snowstorm, but how to dance in the rain. The cheerful rhythm and meaningful lyrics made the audience re-examine the meaning of love, lifestyle, and life in the melody.

Although the performance time was short, we were deeply impressed by the confident, energetic, and talented performances of the IB students. The development of the students has indeed benefited from IB holistic education.

The core of IB education is holistic education. In GZFLS ISA Wenhua IB Diploma Programme, in addition to academic courses, students have the opportunity to participate in more than 50 CCA (extra curriculum activities), jointly provided by GZFLS ISA Wenhua IB Diploma Programme and GZFSL, and a variety of activities on campus, covering humanities, sciences, social sciences, arts, sports and other fields, which promote students" in-depth exploration in these fields, develop their innovative thinking, perspectives and ways of expression, allow them to give full play to their strengths and imagination, seek breakthroughs and innovations based on their learnt knowledge and skills and become a unique individual.
