作为一所外语特色学校，成外高新坚持外语特色，外语教学强调以文化为导向，注重文化差异的点拨、学生跨文化交际能力的培养及跨文化知识的积累，开阔学生思维和视野。与此同时，学校也开展了丰富多彩的外语实践活动，给学生提供更多样的成长平台。
十七世纪英国玄学派诗人约翰·多恩（1572 - 1631）写了一首著名的诗，题目就是《没有人是一座孤岛》。人与人之间有着千丝万缕的联系，这就让沟通显得很重要。人与人之间需要沟通，国与国之间需要沟通，沟通交流架起友谊、理解和爱的桥梁，而沉默带来隔阂、带来误解。正处在青春期的同学们，更应该了解沟通的重要性，学会和家人沟通、和老师沟通、和同学沟通，以建立良好的人际关系。借着这一次的演讲主题From walls to Bridges，同学们各抒己见，分享了对消除隔阂、促进交流的理解，下面是一些优秀演讲片段：
