Lunar New Year Celebration at Stewart Manor School

Two Stewart Manor School first graders, Olivia Huang and Jayden Wong, did an amazing presentation for their class all about Lunar New Year! They taught their classmates what the Lunar New Year is, explained the different zodiac signs and shared that 2026 is the Year of the Horse. Olivia and Jayden even performed a special lion dance with drum music as part of the celebration. To conclude their presentation, they handed out traditional red envelopes, good wishes and luck for the new year ahead, with special surprises inside. We are so proud of their hard work and bravery presenting in front of the class!
