Dear Faley,
In the eve of Chinese New Year,in school we are having a concert.One of the concert are [Lion Dance].after the concert,all the student will go back to class and decorate the class.

After school,all the chinese student will go home and have the reunion dinner.The meaning of [reunion dinner] is to reunite the family and have their dinner together.

After the reunion dinner all of them will have a good rest so that the next day they will not gfet tired.When the Chinese New Year day,they will be wearing the traditonal clothe or wear their new shirt.
