                          🎉 Dragon Boat Festival Fun in Chinese Class! 🐉

 

We have continued exploring a variety of exciting topics in Mandarin this month. A special highlight has been our celebration of the Chinese Dragon Boat Festival across all year levels.

 

The Dragon Boat Festival is one of the oldest traditional festivals in China, with a history of over 2,000 years. Students learned about the origin of this special day and how it is celebrated in modern times.

To bring the festival to life, students enjoyed a range of hands-on activities, including:

  • Making paper rice dumplings and dragon boats
  • Trying the traditional egg-balancing challenge
  • Competing in fun classroom dragon boat races!

Take a look at some of the fun activities we’ve been doing in Chinese class!
