Year 9 pupils enjoyed their first Chinese dumplings (jiǎozi) making session

To summarise their Lent term learning, Year 9 pupils studying Mandarin have enjoyed their first Chinese dumplings (jiǎozi) making session. This is excellent practice of what they have already learned in their food topic. It is also good practice for them to learn some cooking skills. More importantly, they have learned that the reasons behind Chinese dumplings wraps being round is to represent family, being together and reunion. Well done to Sophia as she made most jiǎozi and she was very pleased about her well-made jiǎozi shapes.
