新年快樂 Happy New Year!

This week we are learning and celebrating Chinese New Year! It is the year of Rooster.

We watched this video on Tuesday about WHY people celebrate this special event.





We will also learn a song called Gong Xi Gong Xi.
The title of this song, 恭喜恭喜(Gōng xǐ gōng xǐ) means "Congratulations, Congratulations". But in the song it has the meaning "Good wishes to you for a happy and prosperous New Year". 




There are some events in the weekend in Wellington City such as fireworks and special art/music performances.
Check out this link to find out more!

We wish you a very happy 'rooster' year!


Here is something extra if you want to find out more about Chinese Zodiac:
Wanwan is a dragon, what are you?
