Chinese New Year 2011
Chinese New Year Assembly, Friday 28/1/11
Year 1 began the assembly by singing a song.
It was a song that they learned in Chinese class, taught by Miss Helen Bai. They all looked wonderful in their Chinese and Korean clothes, and sang beautifully!
The rest of the Chinese New Year Assembly was fun too!
Dumplings!
On Monday the 31st of January, Miss Carpenter made Chinese dumplings. Many of the Year 1 children enjoyed them. Some of them ate ten!
