We have had a fantastic week celebrating Chinese New Year in Reception Class. The children have been trying on traditional Chinese clothing.

The children have heard the story of how the years got their names. We have been learning about how Chinese New Year is celebrated and also making Chinese dragon puppets.

We have been watching lion and dragon dances and then devising our own lion and dragon dances. We also tried to eat noodles and prawn crackers with chopsticks with some success!
