Dear beloved Parents, Teachers, and Students,
Welcome back to the Salesian family, and a special welcome to our new teachers, students, and parents who have joined us this year. I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere gratitude to the parents for their continued support and understanding, as well as their cooperation with the school in teaching and guiding students in their learning, progress, and growth.
As the saying goes, "A good beginning is half the battle." On the first day of school, seeing students enter the campus with high spirits and smiles fills our community with renewed vitality. "Opportunity favors the prepared mind!" As long as everyone is well-prepared and actively engaged in learning, I believe that each student will make progress and move toward success.
This school year marks the beginning of our three-year development plan cycle from 2025 to 2028. The theme for
this cycle is "Nurturing Wisdom and Virtue, Walking Together in the Lord". This theme emphasizes the importance of developing not only intellectual capabilities but also moral character among students. In a world filled with challenges and confusion, fostering wisdom and virtue becomes essential for guiding youth toward a meaningful life. Wisdom,
as portrayed in the Bible, is more than mere knowledge; it is the ability to discern right from wrong and make choices that reflect God's teachings. Proverbs 2:6 states, "For the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding." This verse reminds us that true wisdom comes from a relationship with God, allowing students to cultivate a deeper understanding of their faith and the world around them. Virtue, on the other hand, refers to the
moral excellence that shapes one's character. Living virtuously means encouraging and developing good moral qualities such as kindness, patience, and honesty in ourselves and others. The Bible states in Galatians 5:22-23,“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control.”These virtues help us live like Christ and build a loving community. Through various learning activities and programs, students are encouraged to study diligently and explore a wide range of books and experiences in pursuit of wisdom. At the same time, they should prioritize personal moral development, continuously renew themselves, and strive for improvement. We also hope that as students walk together in the light of the Lord, they will face various difficulties and challenges while finding joy and hope in their studies.
At the beginning of this school year, let us pray to our Heavenly Father with gratitude, asking Him to continue guiding our Salesians teachers and students and granting us wisdom. May we grow in knowledge and character in the new school year and pursue excellence in various fields. May God bless all parents, teachers, and students with good health, and may this new school year be filled with the peace, joy, and hope of the Lord!
