They made spring rolls, had a Chinese New Year party, made Chinese musical instruments and masks, learned dance and movement during their Physical Development session and also made a Chinese Dragon which they then used in the outdoor area! I1 pupils have loved learning about Chinese New Year. They learnt about the zodiac race, made Chinese lanterns and tasted Chinese food. They also made a dragon head and created their own dragon dance with musical instruments! I2 pupils celebrated with a visit to Lou Shang in Lytham St. Annes. The children were treated to a wonderful banquet and were very ambitious in their tasting! They all had a good attempt with the chopsticks! **Tags:** [2018-2019](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/news/tag/2018-2019) [infantsandjuniors](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/news/tag/infantsandjuniors) - [ previous](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/news/2019-02-07-classics-competition-finalist) - [next ](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/news/2019-02-09-wine-tasting-charity-event) - [Mission Statement](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/about-us/mission-statement) - [Latest News](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/news) - [History of KGS](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/about-us/history) - [Location & Community](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/about-us/location) - [Term Dates](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/about-us/termdates) - [Statutory Information](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/about-us/statutory-information) - [School Policies](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/about-us/policy-documents) - [Calendar](https://calendar.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/week.aspx?ID=158) - [The Kirkhamian](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/news-1/the-kirkhamian) - [The Friends of KGS](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/thefriends-of-kgs) - [Old Kirkhamians' Association](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/old-kirkhamians-association) - [Hire of Facilities](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/about-us/hire-of-facilities) - [Vacancies](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/vacancies/our-vacancies) ## Kirkham Grammar School ## Kirkham Grammar Junior, Infant & Pre-School Ribby Rd Kirkham Preston Lancashire PR4 2BH Tel: **01772 684264** Email: Ribby Road Kirkham Preston Lancashire PR4 2BD Tel: **01772 673222** Email: [![HMC Leading Independent Schools](https://files.schudio.com/kirkham-grammar-school/images/partners/hmc.png)](https://www.hmc.org.uk/)[![Boarding Schools' Association](https://files.schudio.com/kirkham-grammar-school/images/partners/bsa.png)](http://www.boarding.org.uk/) © Copyright 2019–2026 Kirkham Grammar School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.kirkhamgrammar.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
