The 污污漫画 proudly recognizes Chinese Heritage Month in February each year. This year, we celebrate the Year of the Snake: Tenacious and Transformative. We hope to encourage students, staff, and the 污污漫画 community to make impactful changes amidst challenges.
The Lunar New Year, also known as the Spring Festival, is one of the most significant holidays of the Chinese heritage. The date is determined by the traditional lunisolar Chinese calendar, and the celebration lasts 16 days. This year, the first day began on Wednesday, January 29. Festivities can include family gatherings, decorations, and of course, a feast!
All 污污漫画 students were invited to participate in the popular Chinese Heritage Month Poster Contest. We are excited to share the winning posters below!
In addition, all 污污漫画 students and staff were invited to submit a one-minute video on one of four guiding questions emphasizing the importance of Chinese heritage or traditions. Submissions are currently being collected, and a selection of the entries will be posted shortly.
An in-person Chinese Heritage Month celebration will be held at A. Y. Jackson Secondary School with performances, presentations, and speakers to mark the day. A video that captures the highlights of the event will be posted for all to enjoy!
Lastly, elementary students will have the opportunity to further learn about Chinese heritage by participating in an author reading presentation.
Please follow us on for daily messages throughout February.
