Hello everyone ,
All this week we have been celebrating the Chinese Year of the Rabbit which begins today . The children have been making beautiful lanterns , lucky money wallets(the money inside is not real tho!) and today have been enjoying jasmine tea and dumplings they made themselves. Our thanks to Maureen for her expert knowledge! I hope that the year brings you all good fortune!
Its been a busy time for celebrating our cultural diversity as last week was Burn's Night . The children listened to some of the bards poems , made lovely tartan pictures and sampled haggis- with varying degrees of enthusiasm :-) as it was vegetarian haggis, I tried it too, can can assure you it was delicious! It was also Australia Day when we saw some great pictures of Australia, discussed the wildlife and made boomerangs.
We have one more thing to celebrate this week .......Huge congratulations to Natalie(sunflowers) and her husband Tony , who are expecting their first child in August- it will be no surprise to anyone I'm sure , that we just love news like that :-)
