Ms. Hennessey's class celebrated Chinese New Year - "Gong hei fat choy” is the most common Chinese New Year greeting in Cantonese, which is spoken in parts of southern China and Hong Kong. It directly translates to “Wishing you great happiness and prosperity.” In Mandarin, the same greeting is “gong xi fa cai” (pronounced gong she fa tsai). Chinese New Year is all about bright colors, loud noises, colorful lanterns, and Chinese dragons and celebration! Our students enjoyed designing their own Chinese dragons.
