Aldford School infants celebrate Chinese New Year

Feb 17 2011 by Jo Henwood, Chester Chronicle

INFANTS at Aldford School welcomed the Chinese New Year with a day of celebration.

The youngsters came to school dressed in a variety of costumes and spent the day making Chinese lanterns, dragon masks, rocking rabbits and sampling a selection of Chinese food with chopsticks.

In the afternoon, the children decorated a sheet to use in their Chinatown dragon dance.

This was accompanied by a song and percussion instruments.

The children also experimented with hand bells to produce Chinese sounding music.
