Because it is the end of term the school organised an activity day where each pupil chose one of the many activities to spend their day. Ten of us chose the Chinese activity where we spent the day learning Mandarin and about Chinese culture, this included writing our name in Chinese, painting Peking Opera masks and stuffing our faces with Chinese food, attempting to use chopsticks! The day has been very enjoyable and we now all know how to say greetings in Mandarin, numbers from 1-10 and colours. We are also all very accomplished at eating copius amounts of M&M's! A big thank you goes to Miss Pallut for organising the activities and for teaching us this very complicated language! Here are some photos and there are lots more at the bottom of the web page titled 'Chinese Day'.
