The Mid-Autumn Festival is the second most important festival in China after the Spring Festival. This week, Primary students in Chinese classrooms celebrated the wonderful Mid-Autumn Festival with various activities.
Year 1 and Year 2 children have listened to the Chinese traditional legend story about the moon. They enjoyed the story and have learnt why and how Chinese people celebrated the Mid-Autumn Festival. They made lollypop rabbit and tumbler rabbit, which brought the children so much fun.
Mooncakes are the most representative food for the Mid-Autumn Festival. Year 6 students tried to make mooncakes by themselves. They kneaded the dough, put the filling in and shaped the mooncakes with molds. Through practice, the children further understood the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Students in Years 3, 4 and 5 also made different handcrafts related to the Mid-Autumn Festival. They all enjoyed the activities very much.

What a wonderful day we had hosting our annual Chinese New Year Temple Fair on campus on Sunday. This great community event included games, a Lion Dance, Dragon Dance, a face changing performance, traditional crafts, a bouncy castle, food vendors and gift stalls.Thanks to everyone who made the event possible and magical!
Before the holiday break, we had the privilege of hosting a memorable awards ceremony to celebrate the outstanding achievements of our students in sporty After-School Activities (ASAs). This special event allowed us to recognise the dedication, effort, and talent demonstrated by our students throughout the term.
Today, our students had the wonderful opportunity to take part in two live broadcasts with CNN and on the important topic of Climate Change.
