Mandarin in Primary 6

21st Nov 2025

Primary 6 have been enjoying their Mandarin lessons, learning new vocabulary, exploring Chinese culture, and developing confidence in using simple phrases. As part of their studies, the children learned about Chinese New Year and discovered that this year is the Year of the Horse. To celebrate, they created vibrant posters featuring Chinese characters, traditional symbols, and colourful artwork connected to the zodiac theme. The activity helped reinforce their learning while giving them a fun and creative way to engage with another culture.
