On Tuesday 18 February, the pupils studying Chinese had the privilege of attending a Chinese New Year celebration during lunchtime.
We received a demonstration of traditional Chinese New Year flag dances and then participated in them. My favourite was the Dragon Flag Dance, which was challenging but enjoyable. We also learned basic kung fu techniques and qigong exercises to improve flexibility and health. Overall, the experience was rewarding and enriched my understanding of Chinese culture, and expanding on what I have learned in Chinese class.
