Tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival. Do you know the story of the Dragon Boat Festival? The story of Qu Yuan?

What will you do on the Dragon Boat Festival? If you got to Stanley on Hong Kong Island, or to Shatin in the New Territiories,  you can see teams from all over Hong Kong and the world racing against each other in these boat races.

Each boat has people rowing, and one person to beat a drum. The drummer tells the rowers how fast they should go, a fast beat means row faster, a slow beat means you can slow down…BOOM-DI-BOOM-DI-BOOM…

Could you be a dragon boat racer? What do you eat at the Dragon Boat Festival?

Leave a comment and tell us all about what you will do/what you did at the festival.

Happy Dragon Boat Festival!

What do you think about exams at school or in Hong Kong? Do you think you have too many exams or just enough? Are exams important, if so, why are they important?

Summer is coming! Summer is coming!

The Sun is out, it’s getting hotter and school will be finishing for the holidays. Many people will go away during the summer for a relaxing holiday. Spending time with their families, enjoying trips to the beach or barbecues.

What will you do this summer? Will you visit another country? What will you do if you stay in Hong Kong? What do you like to do in the summer holidays? What do you like to eat?

Tell us all about it…

(I like mint ice cream in the summer….delicious)

It’s that time of year again. This year, we must say farewell to our P6 class of 2007. How do you feel about leaving school? Do you have any messages for your classmates? Do other students have questions or messages for P6?

Everyone will miss you and wish P6 all the best for the future.
