Getting Ready for the Chinese New Year!

Getting Ready for the Chinese New Year! - Getting Ready for the Chinese New Year

It has been a wonderful week and it was especially lovely to see many of our students return to campus for our face-to-face teaching and learning. Alongside that, some of our students have also been busy with our VSE programme and lots of learning continues to take place on both sides! As part of our Cubs Class, we started our focus on English with a delightful story about the upcoming festival by looking at 'Maisy's Chinese New Year' by Lucy Cousins.We have been playing some festive games, including picking up pom poms with chopsticks, and we enjoyed role playing as the children set up a Chinese New Year meal with a spread of delicious food! As part of our learning, we have also been looking at the twelve animals from our Chinese New Year story. We started to make some of our own decorations this week, such as traditional red lanterns, and we even experimented in creating orange prints. We are excited and ready for the Year of the Rabbit!
