园外的棒球小子获得的优异的成绩与园外对学生体质发展的重视是分不开的。近几年来，苏州工业园区外国语学校不断探索有效的教育，总结发现，养活教育和体能训练是影响学生学习、身心健康的最主要的因素。教育应遵循教育的规律和学生身心成长的规律，养活教育和体能训练可以让我们的学生更加热爱生活、热爱学习。校领导经过多次出国考察国际顶尖学校的教学，结合本校这几年的探索实践，在园外国际小学部增设了“特色体育”必修课程，旨在为学生们提供更加专业、系统、科学的体能素质运动训练。

The achievement not only results from their hard training, but also lies in the fact that SIPFLS has attached great importance to the physical development of students. In recent years, we have been exploring effective education methods and realized that Self-reliance Education and Physical Exercises could be possible solutions for SIPFLS. Indeed, we have to follow the rules and principles of education as well as students’ mental and physical growth. Self-reliance Education and Physical Exercises enable our students to enjoy life and study at the same time. Having visited many international top schools, our school leaders decide to offer Featured P.E. course for all SIPFLSers. It could also be seen as a professional, systematic and scientific sport training series especially for enhancing our students’ physical and mental health.

园外特色体育课程

园外特色体育课程以棒球、高尔夫、击剑三项运动为依托，由学生自主选择一项运动在校内跟随相关专业指导教练学习。每项运动都按照学生的年龄段进行分组，通过体能训练+专项运动技巧训练的方式，提高孩子们的运动技能。

There are three sport courses (baseball, golf and fencing) for students to choose from, by which means they can improve their sports skills.

园外引进美国青少年棒球训练体系，专为园外一至六年级学生打造纯正精英棒球课程。有效提高青少年的协调性、爆发力和运动体能，同时棒球独特而有趣的比赛规则，会使学生们更具战略设计能力。
