Our K–5 students had a blast listening to a bilingual story about the Chinese Zodiac and learning why 2026 is the Year of the Horse! 🐎✨

After the story, students got creative with fun horse-themed crafts, celebrating culture, language, and imagination all in one joyful morning.

We can’t wait to read, create, and celebrate together again!
