A beautiful note from our Multifaith Spiritual Wellbeing team about Chinese New Year and Lantern Festival:

On the fifteenth day of Chinese New Year (Lantern Festival, 元宵节.)
As the last day of the Spring Festival, Lantern Festival offers varieties of activities including admiring lanterns, playing dragon lamp dance and lion dance, eating glutinous rice balls, guessing lantern riddles, setting off firecrackers and works.

As one of the most important festivals of Chinese people, the Chinese New Year involves so many traditional customs and colourful activities for celebration. In all these celebrations, remember the importance of family and community.
