CHINESE DANCE WORKSHOP 8th FEBRUARY 2016

Maytree school children enjoyed a day of  ‘Dragon Dance’ brought to the school by Education Group Ltd and captured the symbolism of Chinese New Year.

The children learned about Chinese New Year celebrations and how colour traditionally is believed to ward off evil spirits. Everyone had lots of fun dancing with dragons' heads, fans and umbrellas.  The day ended with a performance in the afternoon where the children showed off their new Chinese dance steps.
