Chinese New Year Celebration...


Celebrating Chinese New Year at L'Ecole Française du Maine will first start with traditional Chinese New Year food -dumplings and New Year cake for lunch, and will be followed by a performance at the South Freeport community hall at 2pm. Students from 3rd grade up to 6th grade are going to put on a short play " The origin of Chinese New Year". The dialogues in this play will be spoken in Chinese and the play will end with a New Year song sung by all participants. Following the play, students will march back to the school with lanterns they made and decorated themselves. Our students have designed and decorated the stage and costumes themselves.
