Conversational Mandarin classes for Kids, Mon 4:30pm, Brooklyn Scout Hall
Fun classes for children Years 1 to 8 learning Mandarin Chinese as an Additional Conversational Language are happening near you!
The classes are starting Monday 8 May, 4:30pm-5:20pm at the Brooklyn Scout Hall. Families can enrol or view more info on www.nihaocc.org.nz.... You can also book a free trial for the first two weeks of the term here: nihaocc.org.nz...
Our 50-minute classes provide full immersion in the language so that the children learn and absorb in a Mandarin Chinese speaking environment. The classes are for those learning the language as a foreign or second language, and the aim is that the children learn to converse in it! We follow a structured curriculum, and use lots of interaction, songs/raps, movement and games as part of the learning experience. There are no whiteboards or desks!
The emphasis of these classes will be to develop listening, comprehension and conversational skills in Mandarin Chinese. The classes also introduce recognition and reading of Chinese characters, in a practical way.
Children can be dropped off to class and picked up after by a pre-authorised adult, however parents/caregivers are welcome to join in the class, and may sometimes be asked to help with props or be actors!

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
