We Learned the Character "星" (Star)!

Did you know about our Solar System? Can you name the eight planets in Chinese?


Students at Wellington Chinese School (Book2) recently learned the Chinese character for "star" (星 – xīng), which opened the door to exploring our solar system!

One student, Arianna Ding, even created a bilingual (Chinese-English) handbook about the solar system, complete with illustrations and facts. Fantastic work!
