Year 5's Chinese New Year Celebrations.

Dear Parents/Guardians, It's all organised! - Year 5 are going to be learning about the Chinese New Year this Friday. The day will start with some geographical skills - locating China on a map, looking at the Chinese Flag and images of China, before moving on to discussing the Chinese New Year. The children have been encouraged to bring any artefacts from China to school on Friday. Later in the morning we will be having a Chinese Maths lesson. At midday, we will be visiting the Prince Garden in the village and having a talk about the Chinese New Year. Children will be preparing questions to ask. We will be sampling some traditional Chinese food too. On our return to school, children will have lunch time - please send a packed lunch to school on Friday as we are not sure what time we will be back from the restaurant. After lunch the children will be taking part in some very basic Martial Arts in the hall. Our very own karate black belt Mr Llewellyn will be leading this session! Time allowing, during last lesson we'll be having a quiz about the Chinese New Year - so children need to do a little bit of revision between now and then. We hope the day will be both informative and fun. If your child has any food allergy, or wishes to not try any food please advise us below.

I am happy for my child to visit The Prince Garden on Friday 30th January.
