On Thurday and Friday of last week, P4\/5 took part in some interesting and fun Chinese New Year activities and celebrations!<\/p>\n

We also tried some traditional Chinese rice crackers before celebrating with fortune cookies! We were also lucky to receive a red envelope with a sweet inside, which we learned is what Chinese children get every New Year for good luck and fortune. This year’s envelope had a dog on it as it is The Year of The Dog.<\/p>\n

Happy Chinese New Year from all of us!<\/p>\n
