Chinese New Year with Year 7

22nd Jan 2023

On Friday, Room 12 went to Omagh Leisure Complex to take part in a range of workshops related to Chinese New Year. The children split into five groups and rotated around different activities with children from Holy Family PS and Omagh Integrated PS. 

The workshops involved lantern making, costume trying, calligraphy drawing, storytelling and music. After visiting the different workshops, the children were treated to a fan dance as well as a lion performance!

Before returning to school, the children lined up to sample a selection of hot and cold Chinese food including curry, rice, noodles, spring rolls and fortune cookies.

Thank you to Blanaid from Radius Housing for inviting us and organising a wonderful event and to Artsekta for providing such a wonderful range of activities.

See the pictures and videos below to get a taste of the event. The children had a brilliant morning!
