走近加拿大——Cardinal Carter Academy for the Arts

Today I visited a very unusual school which really impressed me a lot. The school is so special not only because it has no formal school gate, but also its high reputation through Ontario, almost one of the best ten elementary schools in Canada. Even the well-known universities, such as the University of Toronto and the University of York want to give their offers to the students study here.

At the very beginning of today’s visit, when we sat in a small hall and listened to the principal's introduction of this school. I can't believe that this school is that well-known and the students who study here are that well-educated. Honestly, I don't think he tells the truth, maybe he just boasted. And then, Simon asked him a question about Mathematics. It's not very proper and polite to ask such a question at that moment. But it did help me to find out why this old man who talks big can be the principal. He was so responsive and sophisticated that he just thought one or two seconds to answer such a tough question clearly and positively. The answer did not embarrass both sides, which are we come from China and Canadian people buy Mathematic books in the store. And the principal looked just the same as the very beginning.

And through all the process of visiting, I was deeply impressed by the students study in this school. They were amazing. Almost everyone was doing something they were really interested in. They sang, they danced, they drew, they computer- animated, they did whatever they like. And from their faces, I found they really enjoyed doing it. They all feel very proud of what they did in the school. I do think all of what the students did are amazing. Some of the children's performances were unbelievable. You will never believe they are only thirteen or fourteen years old unless you saw their performance. It's totally different in China. Children in my city did something just because of their parents want them to do it.

At the end, I found a sentence pasted on the wall of one classroom. It is 'For success, attitude is as important as ability.' To every student who wants to make his or her dream come true, that's the key point. And to every school which wants to be famous and well-known, that's also the key point. With this kind of attitude, nothing is impossible in our life.
