Lunar New Year: FS2 Celebrating the Year of the Dragon!

14th Feb 2024

In FS2 we enjoy finding out about all the special celebrations and festivals that our families and communities enjoy here in Sheffield - and across the world.

In the final week, we learned about the Lunar/Chinese New Year:

  • when it is celebrated
  • how it is celebrated
  • what the special traditions are 

The children also enjoyed discovering facts about the country of China.

They all worked very hard to design their very own Great Wall of China, based on the original, both outside and inside the classroom!

Please click here to discover even more about this very special time of the year.
