Ni hao, welcome to our Mandarin Blog! Huanying (Welcome)!

The Mandarin programme at Meadowbank School began in 2011. Now, more than 500 students in years 2 to 6 attend weekly Mandarin lessons. A range of topics, such as numbers, colours and fruit, has been covered, with the children learning vocabulary and useful sentences. The children have also been given opportunities to experience a number of Chinese cultural activities such as Calligraphy, Chinese painting and paper cutting.
