Our friends at Sijiyuan Primary School, Yangzhou, China

Following from Mr Duggan's trip to China in October we have been keeping in touch with our friends at Sijiyuan Primary School. Below is a look at what they have been getting up to.

Different Children's Day

On June 1, 2016, we had a different children's day. We

sold our toys and books from home to each other, and

the money we earned will be donated to the poor or sick

classmates in our school. It was really a happy holiday!

Learning to make Zongzi

The fifth lunar month every year is our country ’ s

traditional festival "Dragon Boat Festival". The legend is

to commemorate the great patriotic poet Qu yuan. This

year's Dragon Boat Festival, we go home to learn how to

make zongzi from our grandma and grandpa . During this

traditional Festival we Chinese often eat different kind of

zongzi, inside which we fill with a variety of flavors, such

as red jujube, sausage, fresh meat, red bean...

School Farm

Happy farmers!

In the southeast corner of our school, there is a small

piece of land. Students spend their spare time planting

vegetables in the field. Now, the lettuces are ripe ! We are

selling vegetables at the school gate!
