Chinese New Year! 🎉🏮🎊🇨🇳👘
The whole school had an absolute ball celebrating Chinese New Year! Calligraphy, Chinese paper folding, lantern making and traditional lion dancing were just some of the excellent activities taking place around the school. A huge thank you to all the parents who supported the day; it was clear a huge effort had been made judging by the fantastic outfits the children arrived to school in. A whole school Lion Dance performance, courtesy of the Manchester Chinese Cultural Centre, left children completely mesmorised; some of our staff and children also had the opportunity to take part in it too. Have a peek at some of the highlights in the video below.
Deadly Dancers!
In just one dance lesson, the fantastic children of Class 9 choreographed their own dances based on the formation of volcanoes. The children picked their own music thinking carefully about how it imitated the action of the magma. Enjoy the eruption!
