Chinese New Year Celebrations 2009

The Chinese New Year Concert for 2009 was extravagant to say the least.
It started out with the Chinese Orchestra performing three songs called 'Golden Snake', Gong Xi Fa Cai' and 'Cow for Sacrifice'. The three songs were played beautifully and it filled our hearts with joy.


The next performance was the Lion Dance. It was an amazing and very exciting performance. The performance was done with great effort and the "lion" threw some sweets and cabbages at the very eager audience. It was very generous of them to provide us with sweets and we appreciate them for performing at our school.


After the Lion Dance there was a Chiang Kair Tong Education Support Fund Presentation. Selected pupils from our school were awarded vouchers for their commendable effort for being excellent pupils of Evergreen Secondary School. Next, was a karaoke performance by our EVGians. Both songs were sung by the winners of the Mother Tongue Week Karaoke Contest. They sang the songs melodiously and it was clear why they were chosen as the karaoke winners.



After the karaoke performance was a performance by the Chinese dancers. They danced very gracefully and touched the hearts of the crowd. They were given a loud round of applause from the audience. Next up, was the Tarian Kuda Kepang which is also called the Horse Riding Dance. This dance was performed by none other than the Malay dancers. They danced energetically and made everyone excited because of the mesmerizing dance.Last but not least, was Mass Singing. Everybody was singing along and had a wonderful time and this ended the Chinese New Year Celebrations in an upbeat note.
