Chinese New Year is a very special and important celebration time in the Chinese culture.  On the New Year's Eve families usually get together to have a special meal, children receive a red envelope; friends and families say only lucky words to each other. 

I have arranged a Chinese New Year dinner party on 8th February 09.  Please note below the details. I have book the VIP room which can only take 40 seats with Karaoke, so we can have entrainment after dinner. For those who love to sing, we are looking forward to hearing from you. 

Tickets need to be purchased in advance at the school desk from Jasmine or write a cheque to the school address.  Do make sure you purchase your tickets no later than 1st February 2009.
