SCHOOL NEWS ROUNDUP
Harvard Business Alumni
Afternoon with Malcolm
On 21 November 2015, Beijing’s Harvard
Business School Alumni invited Malcolm
McKenzie for their afternoon talk series.
Focused on the education of the future, Mr.
McKenzie emphasized the need for a wellrounded and holistic education. He noted
that this should also include a student’s
character development, which is often
forgotten in today’s educational emphasis on
the development of skills.
Olympic Fencing Champion Inspires
Students “Not to Give Up”
As part of Keystone’s ‘Inspiration Series,’ 2008 Olympic fencing
champion, Zhong Man spent a few hours with the school community
on 23 October 2015. It is hard to imagine a towering Olympian such as
Zhong Man failing. But as he shares his life story with a packed audience
in the Keystone Academy’s Performing Arts Center, he narrated an
experience of successes that came from not giving up, and from learning
from failures. Zhong Man definitely inspired parents, teachers and
students, especially those who learn fencing at Keystone. The aspiring
foilists eagerly imitated Zhong Man’s footwork and strike poses, as he
patiently demonstrated his tactics and strategies.
