\"\"Kindergarten and Year 2 have been learning all about Chinese New Year. Chinese New Year was on January 28th<\/sup>.\u00a0 It\u2019s been very interesting finding out about \u2018The Spring Festival\u2019 and we\u2019ve really delved into learning about how dragon dances, red envelopes, firecrackers, lanterns and Nian are important to Chinese New Year.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve swept and cleaned the classroom to put away old things, bid farewell to the old year, and welcome the New Year, brought good luck to our classes by turning our door red and making red and gold decorations that hung above our doors and even acted out the Chinese New Year story!<\/p>\n

As a culmination to our learning, Kindergarten and Year 2 joined together to have a joint Chinese New Year party, where the children explored eating with chopsticks (many for the first time!) and tried authentic Chinese food, made by their parents. A lovely time was had by all!<\/p>\n
