Happy New Year of the Rabbit!

This week we have been celebrating Chinese New Year. We have listened to and then retold the story about the animal race and how it all began; made lanterns, purses, masks and tried our hand at Chinese style writing. We've experimented using chopsticks for picking things up and even for eating rice. We've shared our 'homework' (thanks everybody for your help here)and found out that we are either Dogs or Roosters! We tasted Oliver and his mum's 'sweet and sour'. Delicious! We were lucky to watch Y2 perform their Dragon Dance and this inspired us to make up our own dances using the pretty cloths and ribbons.
