January update!

30th Jan 2018

Hi all,

It's hard to believe we're back in school almost a month since Christmas! Where does the time go?! I hope everyone enjoyed the Christmas break, and ate lots of yummy food - I know I did! Here's a quick update on what we've been getting up to over the past couple of weeks...

In order to celebrate the commencement of 2018, we learned all about China and the Chinese New Year. We learned about the life of Chinese children and the differences between their daily life and ours. The children felt super fortunate that they have only five and a half hours of school in comparison to Chinese children, who are faced with 9 whole hours of school a day!! The children created Chinese paper lanterns which they decorated beautifully with cherry blossom flowers. They also made Chinese drums. Here are some pictures of the hard work the children put into their art and their China projects.
