Chinese & Vietnamese New Year Celebration 2012 - 23rd January
 

新年快乐 / 新年快樂 (Happy New Year!)

Abbey College recently celebrated Chinese and Vietnamese New Year by decorating the college reception area and offering traditional Chinese snacks in the common room for all to try.

The GCSE students (Abu, Gurpreet, Aishah, Kevin, Yan, Soban and Fatima) arranged for the traditional 'red packets' shared at Chinese New Year to be available for s...ale at the college with the proceeds going to charity. They raised over £50 for Oxfam.

Inside the red packets were kind messages and well wishes for the new year written in Chinese. The red packets were delivered to form rooms and the receiver asked one of their Chinese friends to translate it for them.

It was a lovely event where all students were able to share cultures and positivity for the coming year (and of course their exams)! (Article by Sarah Bloomer).
