The boys were busy learning all about the Chinese New Year in class last week. The boys shared what they already knew about the Chinese calendar, and some could even recall what animal represented their birth year!

The boys then created beautiful printed artwork using sponges, paint and a silhouette of a rabbit. 

Using the traditional 'auspicious' Chinese colours of red and yellow, the boys printed their own beautiful designs and patterns. 

The art has helped us to add a beautiful splash of colour in the classroom. Well done boys.

 

Happy Lunar New Year!

新年好!
