We have wonderful news to share 🙂 The various teams at Wellington Central Library have approved a new weekly Mandarin session to be run by Ni Hao Children’s Community in their children’s area! So….

Starting on Thursday 9th July 2015, 10am, Wellington Central Library children’s area

Ni Hao Children’s Community Stories & Rhymes provides a time for parents and children to play and learn Mandarin as a Second Language together through stories, rhymes and action songs. It’s also a great opportunity to hear and use Mandarin in a welcoming and social environment.

Starting from Thursday 9 July 2015, these FREE sessions are held weekly at the Wellington Central Library children’s area (near the big window by the waterfall), Thursdays, 10 to 10:30am. Stories & Rhymes! sessions are led by one of our teachers and designed for Mandarin for Speakers of Other Languages (MSOL) families who are wanting to learn the language as a foreign/second language.  Fluent Mandarin speakers would also enjoy these sessions! These Stories & Rhymes! sessions are a great introduction to the Mandarin language and a very small taster of our fun class programmes.

Our Playgroup will be finishing off at the end of Term 2, and we wanted to find a space where more people could come to… so here it is. These sessions will still be very casual, of mixed ages, and definitely not a replacement for our Toddlers and Preschoolers classes!

Please start spreading the news!!! We will be working with the Library teams to get this marketed as best as we can. The Library teams and ourselves will be keeping a close eye on attendance numbers for this school holidays and Term 3. The more, the merrier!!! 🙂
