Everybody was Kung Fu fighting!

Learning Mandarin at Tahuna involves so much more than learning the language, it can also mean developing cultural understandings, and even doing some martial arts!

Every Monday in Room 16 we study Mandarin with our specialist Mandarin teacher.  We learn colours of the rainbow, how to count to ten and we learn how to converse with the language too. Lately we have been doing Kung Fu, which has been amazing fun!  In class we’ve learnt different actions and performed it all to music. There’s one move that’s really hard to do, it’s like doing the splits and I’ve probably fallen over about 10 times! We have also been doing games like Simon Says, card games and guess the number all in Mandarin.  It's so much fun!!!
