架构师提供的文本描述。中国中小学教育面临的最紧迫问题是对学生的无情压力。一周六天的早上7点到下午5点的课是很常见的。当然，学业成绩是至高无上的，但我们也必须确保我们的孩子有机会享受作为孩子的乐趣。

Text description provided by the architects. The most pressing issue facing Chinese primary and secondary education is the unrelenting pressure on students. 7am to 5pm classes six days a week is common. Of course academic achievement is paramount, but we must also ensure our children have the opportunity to enjoy being children.

通过玩耍、放松和偶然遇到与自己不同的人来学习，也能在孩子们身上培养必要的、有价值的技能、知识和创造力。

Learning through play, relaxation, and chance encounters with others different to ourselves, also develops essential and worthy skills, knowledge, and creativity in our children.

为了支持一种更加平衡的儿童工作、休息和玩耍的方法，这个项目把非学术活动放在了它的核心位置。该网站的大面积专门用于体育、音乐、舞蹈、戏剧、视觉艺术和“其他”节目。

In support of a more balanced approach to work, rest, and play for children, this project places the non-academic activities at its heart. A large area of the site is dedicated to sports, music, dance, theatre, visual art and “other” programs.

学生的生活被鼓励通过，下，并围绕这一新的景观休息和玩耍。来自其他学校项目的窗口提供了这一新景观诱人的景观。线性广场或“学校大街”提供了一个隐蔽的、非正式的地方，将所有学生联系在一起。

Student life is encouraged to flow over, through, under, and around this new landscape of rest and play. Windows from the other school programs provide tantalizing views of this new landscape. Linear piazza or a ‘school main street’ provides a shaded informal place linking all students together.

从这条“学校主街”流出的是四个广场，每个年级一至三年级，4-6岁，7-9年级。与其他较小的线性广场，他们形成了一个非正式的景观空间网络，与座位，阴影，最重要的是，发挥的空间。

Flowing off this ‘school main street’ are four plazas, one for each of the student levels, years 1-3; 4-6; and 7-9. Together with other smaller linear plazas they form a network of informal landscaped spaces, with seating, shade, and most importantly, space for play.

这个网络的交叉点模糊和融合，以鼓励不同年龄学生的运动和混合。然而，另一个广泛的网络出现在地面之上，在阳台、桥梁和屋顶上，也有用于非正式聚会和玩耍的空间。

The intersections of this network blur and merge to encourage the movement and mixing of different aged students. Yet another extensive network occurs above ground, on balconies, bridges and roofs, again with spaces for informal gathering and play.
