Summer Term in the School of Life will start on Friday 25 January 2015, in Collingwood, Melbourne, Australia and will become the first international school to open its doors.
To make everyday life rich, the writer Alain de Botton has worked hard at getting the best ideas and the School of Life is his brainchild(构想). Since it began in London in 2009, more than 50,000 people have taken part in its programs and its new way of life-long learning is now well-known all over the world.
Summer Term in the School of Life is a 10-week project offering a selection of the UK’s most popular programs, led by Australia’s thinkers. “We are very excited to start the School of Life in Australia. We can’t wait to start receiving our first guests(客人),” says Alain de Botton.
Summer Term will include different classes, workshops and other special events held every Friday, Saturday and Sunday between 25January and 31 March. The conversation Café onsite will serve up a daily conversation menu, light food and of course, delicious coffee.
“There has been a growing need among Australians to deal with the problems in life like love, creativity, work, money, nature and death. The School of Life Australia will provide a space for us to explore (探测) these subjects,” says Sara Tiefebtun, Project Director of the School of Life Australia.

I will never forget the tenth summer of childhood with my grandfather in western Norway on the mountain farm where my mother was born. As a boy. I always thought people simply bought whatever they needed. Whether Grandfather knew this. I didn't know. One day he said. 'Come. I have something for you.'
I followed him to a workroom. 'You should have a toy boat. You can sail it at Storvassdal.' he said. 'Great,' I thought. Looking around for the boat. But there was none
Grandfather pointed to a block of wood. ‘The boat is in there.' he said. Then he handed me some tools and showed me how to use them properly. 'It'll be a fine boat. and you'll make it with your own hands.' he said. 'NO one can give you what you do for yourself.' The words rang in my head as l worked. The boat was finished. It wasn't much to look at, but l was proud. Then I sailed it at Storvassdal.
We had to return to America. 'You cannot bring that boat home with you,' my mother said. We had too much baggage. Feeling sad, I hid my boat under a big rock at Storvassdal.
I said good-bye to Grandfather, not knowing I would never see him again.
In 1964, I went to Storvassdal with my parents and my wife and children. To my surprise, for 34 years my treasure stayed here, waiting for my return. I felt we three were together again although my grandfather had died 22 years before.

I returned to the lake in 1968. 1971. 1977 and 1988. Each time l had the boat and carved the year, my grandfather seemed near
My last trip to Storvassdal was in 1991. I brought my granddaughters: Catherine. 13; Claire. 12. I hoped they would understand the importance of the little boat and its simple message. At Storvassdal, Claire said softly, 'Grandpa, someday I'II come back.' she added. 'And I'll bring my children.'

At the start of his new term, Zhou Ziyu, a student from Heilongjiang, got some big news. Her school plans to delay (延迟) its start time to 8 a.m. She was quite happy.
Zhou used to get up at 6 a.m., but would study until 10 or 11 p.m. the night before. She worked very hard. Her school asked students to arrive at 6:30 a.m. in summer and 7 a.m. in winter. She didn't get enough sleep. “ I often felt sleepy in class. But if my school plans to delay the start time, I'll be very glad.” Zhou said.
In fact, all of the schools in Heilongjiang plan to change their start time. Primary and middle schools will expect students to arrive at 8 a.m. or later. The change will help more students get enough sleep. In general, most Chinese middle school students have to arrive at school at around 7 a.m. Students have to get up at 6 a.m. or even earlier if they live far from school.
