Lion Dance


As part of a Chinese/PE inter-disciplinary enquiry, groups of students investigated the history and traditions of Chinese lion dancing, and then devised and performed their own Lion Dance routines for a final assessment in their PE unit on 'Aesthetics'. This is the opening performance by Ryan Hsu, Richie Cheng, Sierra Chiao and Vanessa Wat. It begins with school director Richard Pratt 'waking' the lions in the traditional manner by painting the pupils on their eyes.
