MIS has strong Scottish roots. MCS our founding school, based in the heart of Scotland's capital Edinburgh, is very proud of its history and heritage.

Each year on 30 November we celebrate St Andrew’s Day in Scotland.

曼校有着纯正的苏格兰血统,母校就是在苏格兰首都爱丁堡中心地带创办的。曼校一直不忘苏格兰的历史和传统,每年11月30日,我们都会在庆祝圣安德鲁日。


What is St Andrew’s Day?

什么是圣安德鲁日?


St Andrew was officially named the patron saint of Scotland in 1320. It's St Andrew's Day on the 30 November. He is the patron saint of Scotland. He is also the patron saint of Romania, Greece, Russia, Ukraine and Poland. Patron saints are chosen to be special protectors or guardians over things.

1320年,圣安德鲁被正式命名为苏格兰的守护神,而11月30日则为圣安德鲁日。他不仅是苏格兰的守护神,还是罗马尼亚,希腊,俄罗斯,乌克兰和波兰的守护神。


Andrew was present at the Last Supper and went on to preach Christianity in the provinces of Scythia, Achaea and Thrace and along the Black Sea and the Dnieper River, hence his adoption as the patron saint of Greece, Cyprus, Romania, Ukraine and Russia in addition to Scotland.

安德鲁是出现在“最后的晚餐”中的一位圣徒,他相继在在Scythia,Achaea和Thrace等省以及黑海和第聂伯河传教,因此除苏格兰外,他在希腊、塞浦路斯、罗马尼亚、乌克兰和俄罗斯都被奉为守护神。


The day of the 30th November to commemorate St Andrew was actually started by a group of expats from the USA. These expats wanted a day to connect with their roots in Scotland and also remember St Andrew and celebrate all that he stood for and his contribution to Scottish society.

11月30日被作为圣安德鲁日是由一群来自美国的苏格兰侨民发起,他们希望一年中可以有一天能让他们怀念起自己的民族,纪念圣安德鲁以及他对苏格兰社会的贡献。


At MIS we celebrated St Andrew’s Day with “A Taste of Scotland”.

在曼校,我们以“苏格兰文化体验日”的方式庆祝这一天。





 Scottish Poetry 苏格兰诗歌 



To a Haggis

By Robert Burns


Fair fa’ your honest, sonsie face,

Great Chieftain o’ the Puddin-race!
Aboon them a’ ye tak your place,
Painch, tripe, or thairm:
Weel are ye wordy of a grace
As lang ‘s my arm.


Ye Pow’rs wha mak mankind your care,
And dish them out their bill o’ fare,
Auld Scotland wants nae skinking ware
That jaups in luggies;
But, if ye wish her gratefu’ prayer,
Gie her a Haggis!


Selkirk Grace

By Robert Burns


Some hae meat and canna eat,

And some wad eat that want it,

But we hae meat and we can eat,

And sae the Lord be thankit.”

Auld Lang Syne


Should auld acquaintance be forgot

And never brought to mind?

Should auld acquaintance be forgot

And days of auld lang syne?

For auld lang syne, my dear

For auld lang syne

We'll tak a cup o' kindness yet

For days of auld lang syne

We twa hae run about the braes

And pu'd the gowans fine

But we've wander'd mony a weary fit

Sin days of auld lang syne

We twa hae paidl'd i' the burn

Frae morning sun till dine

But seas between us braid hae roar'd

Sin days of auld lang syne

For auld lang syne, my dear

For auld lang syne

We'll tak a cup o' kindness yet

For days of auld lang syne

And surely ye'll be your pint-stowp

And surely I'll be mine

And we'll tak a cup o' kindness yet

For auld lang syne

And there's a hand, my trusty fiere

And gie's a hand o' thine

And we'll tak a right gude-willy waught

For auld lang syne

For auld lang syne, my dear

For auld lang syne

We'll tak a cup o' kindness yet

For auld lang syne

For auld lang syne, my dear

For auld lang syne

We'll tak a cup o' kindness yet

For auld lang syne
