别忘了你的孩子有多棒

今天跟大家分享的是英国一所小学的校长写给所有毕业生的一封信。当这封朴实动人的信被全球疯转时，它的原作者Barrowford Primary School却在twitter上说：我们做的只是提醒孩子他们有多优秀。

译文：

亲爱的xxx,

随信是你的小学毕业考试成绩。我们真为你骄傲，因为在这个考试周里你付出了很多，也尽了自己最大的努力。

但是，这些考试并不能体现出你们最独特的一面。因为这些出考题的叔叔阿姨并不像你们的老师和爸爸妈妈那样了解你们每一个人。

考试无法告诉他们，你们之中有很多人可以说两国语言。

考试无法告诉他们，你们会演奏乐器、会跳舞、会画画。

考试无法告诉他们，你们是朋友最信赖的人，一个微笑就可以点亮沉闷的一天。

考试无法告诉他们，你们会写诗、作曲，参加各种运动，对未来充满憧憬，或者有时还能把弟弟妹妹照顾得很好。

考试无法告诉他们，你去过美妙的地方，你会讲好玩的故事，你最爱和家人、朋友共度的时光。

考试无法告诉他们，你们是善良、体贴、值得信赖的孩子。

考试无法告诉他们，你每天都在努力做最好的自己。

分数不能说明一切。

所以，请骄傲的接过你的成绩单，并且要记住，成功的方式远不止一种。

Dear xxx

Please find enclosed your end of KS2 test result. We are very proud of you as you demonstrated huge amounts of commitment and tried your very best during this tricky week.

However, we are concerned that all these tests do not always assess all of what it is that make each of you special and unique. The people who create these tests and score them do not know each of you—the way your teachers do, the way I hope to, and certainly not the way your families do.

They do not know that many of you speak two languages.

They do not know that you can play a musical instrument or that you can dance or paint a picture.

They do not know that your friends count on you to be there for them or that your laughter can brighten the dreariest day.

They do not know that you write poetry or songs, play or participate in sports, wonder about future, or that sometimes you take care of your little brother or sister after school.

They do not know that you have travelled to a really neat place or that you know how to tell a great story or that you really love spending time with special family members and friends.

They do not know that you can be trustworthy, kind or thoughtful, and that you try every day , to be your very best…

The scores you get will tell you something, but they will not tell you everything.

So enjoy your results and be very proud of these but remember there are many ways of being smart.

别忘了你的孩子有多棒。
