Some learning is not about showcasing results, but about being heard, understood, and truly seen. On December 24, the Celebration of Learning brought the TCS community together to share students’ learning journeys in many forms — from classroom presentations, exhibitions, and club showcases to the vibrant performances at the afternoon Talent Show. In every time slot and every detail, we could see the dedication, effort, and growth behind each student’s work. We since

Last Friday, TCS’s Christmas Shoebox Project, led by the Student Service Group, came to a heartfelt close with the participation of students and staff across the school. From collecting shoeboxes and selecting school supplies to wrapping gifts and writing Christmas cards, every step was completed by the students themselves. Each shoebox reflects their care, creativity, and sincere wishes for others. Muriel, an administrative mentor at TCS, shared, “What may seem like a

【TCS Experiential Learning Friday | G8 A Day of Exploration at the Library】
This visit to the Taoyuan Public Library became a journey of slow discovery. Students moved through the space—from the Green Spiral and reading areas to themed shelves and quiet corners. One highlight was the exhibition Rediscovering Taiwan: Chen Cheng-po’s 130th Birthday Anniversary Exhibition, where students paused to observe colour, composition, and the stories rooted in land and history. The open atrium, known as the “Tree of Life,” left a strong impression. In a sp

【TCS Experiential Learning Friday | G9 AI Statistical Thinking】
This G9 AI Statistical Thinking session looked very different from a traditional math or statistics class. Instead of long formula-based instruction or fixed answers, learning took place through a series of logic-based games that emphasized thinking, strategy, and choice. Each activity required teamwork, discussion, and real-time decision-making. Students worked with limited information and time, evaluating risk, adjusting strategies, and explaining the reasoning behind th

【TCS Experiential Learning Friday | G7 Strength & Softness: Woodworking & Weaving】
In this scarf-making experience, students didn’t begin with weaving. G7 students started with wood and copper nails—building their own weaving peg boards first, then using what they made to turn yarn into finished pieces. Sawing, sanding, measuring, hammering— each focused expression marked a step in a journey from nothing to something. With his signature humour, Mr. Lucio guided the class carefully, showing students how to space the nails, hold the hammer safely, and cont

【TCS “Legend of the Dragon’s Children” Chinese Competition | Hands-on, minds-on, voices-on—and plenty of laughter】
Last Friday, G7–G9 students at TCS took part in a dynamic and memorable Chinese competition. The first half featured individual competitions held in classrooms, where students focused on brush calligraphy, hard-pen writing, and character form and meaning. The classrooms were filled with a calm, focused atmosphere as each character slowly took shape on paper. The team competition then moved to the student cafeteria, shifting the mood to something lively and energ

【TCS Friday Experiential Learning|G7–G9 Journey to Guanyin Mountain: A Challenge of Self-Discovery】
On this day, our G7, G8, and G9 students set out for Guanyin Mountain— three routes, three learning tasks. Whether bird-watching, exploring military heritage, or practising kindness through the tea-offering activity,students learned about themselves and one another through real-world experiences. G7 observed the wind, the sky, and the rhythm of nature; G8 moved through historic military sites, working as a team and reflecting on what they would choose to protect; G9 e

【TCS Friday Experiential Learning|G10 & G12 Field Trip : A Real-World Adventure Through Guanghua & Syntrend】
This urban tech adventure began even before students left campus. During the pre-trip briefing, teachers reviewed tasks, interview guidelines, group plans, and expectations. Dennis also prepared a tech-themed Blooket game, putting everyone into exploration mode before departure. But once they stepped into Guanghua Digital Plaza, teachers laughed as students showed the wide-eyed look of “rabbits entering a tech jungle.” Surrounded by countless components an

TCS MS Science Camp Week 3 | Plants × Light × Electricity Uncovered! In Week 3 of our MS Science Camp, students dove deeper into biology, optics, and electricity, building on the curiosity sparked in the first two weeks. ▍G7 Biology — Plant Transport in Action Students observed how water moves through celery, watched white flowers gradually absorb colour, and created leaf-vein specimens that revealed hidden plant structures. ▍G8 Optics — The Magic of Waves Through w

【TCS OAEP WEEK 2 |G11 Advanced Skills】
Last Friday, our G11 students stepped into OAEP Week 2 — and the “+1 experience level” was obvious from the start. During the cooking session, two styles quickly appeared: the mini–professional kitchen teams — sharp knife skills, confident seasoning, steady fire control; and the silent synergy teams — few words, perfect timing, surprisingly delicious results. With the same ingredients (eggs, rice, cabbage, onions), some groups plated three dishes with ease, while others
