In a beautiful morning, on Friday, February 12 2016, started at 8.00 am, SHB Cambridge Primary held a yearly event, Chinese New Year Celebration. This event aimed to gather all students in gymnasium to celebrate the joyful moment of the Chinese New Year.
The program was initiated by two Mandarin teachers as the MCs who welcomed all the students in the gymnasium, continued by an opening prayer led by Ms. Pretty and an opening speech from Ms. Emy. The next activity was an introduction to Chinese New Year special food by Yu Ying Hwa and Yovita as the MCs, and then the students watched a short movie about the Chinese New Year special traditions. The students could later enjoy the performances from their friends, performing dances from the ballet extracurricular and modern dance show from Chloe and Cailyn. The next short drama “Si ma guang za gang” was really interesting. Students were also excited to watch the dance performance from Ms. Emy and some female teachers. And the program continued to the show that they had waited which were the dragon and the lion dance from SHB Secondary school. Students were always excited to give ‘ang pao’ to the Lion dancers. The final program was to enjoy the Chinese New Year special food and drink. Every student had 7 coupons to be traded with the food and drink from the booths around gymnasium.
Right after they have finished enjoying the food, the students returned to their classrooms. Before leaving the school, they were so happy to receive the ‘ang pao’. And thankfully all programs ran smoothly as planned. Happy prosperous Chinese New Year!
