Learning Together / Te Ako Tahi
Lunar New Year - The Year of the Snake
The Lunar New Year begins this year on Wednesday, 29 January. The 15-day festival is celebrated annually (dates depend on the sighting of the new moon) and signifies the beginning of the lunar year. It is also known as the Spring Festival and an animal is associated with each new year - this year, it is the snake. Symbolising wisdom and transformation, the snake invites opportunities for personal growth and change. We wish everyone a successful and prosperous Year of the Snake!
