This week in the department we have been celebrating Chinese New Year - the Year of the Pig. This has been a great opportunity for us to build links with the school’s Chinese teacher. Pupils have been finding out more about Chinese culture and have even had the opportunity to try making some traditional Chinese recipes. Again, I feel such practice demonstrates just how effectively the cross-curricular emphasis of A Curriculum for Excellence can operate in schools. Three subjects, across faculties working together > needless to say I’m excited about further developments.
