qi gong workshop<br />

As part of celebrating Chinese culture during<br />

Chinese Language Week, we had a Health Qi Gong<br />

workshop open to all our Juniors.<br />

Health Qi Gong is a practice to cultivate and balance qi (“life energy”).<br />

The Year 10 Mandarin class made posters to publicise the workshop<br />

and Qi Gong master David Wong came in to run the workshop.<br />

Thirty students attended the workshop, learnt foundational<br />

movements, performed a 20 minute practice and learnt about keeping<br />

our bodies and minds healthy.<br />

chopsticks<br />

workshop<br />

Food is a central part to<br />

understanding different<br />

cultures, and the way we<br />

eat is different in all our<br />

different cultures.<br />

Students learnt and practiced<br />

using chopsticks, and competed<br />

for prizes with picking up drawing<br />

pins. Pins are small and slippery,<br />

so the students had a good<br />

challenge!<br />
