EGS Seniors Crowned Borough League Champions!!

3rd February 2022Mrs S Field
Congratulations to the the Senior Basketball team, who, on Monday played their final Borough league fixture against Latymer. The fixture was a true winner takes all event, as the eventual winners would be crowned borough league champions.
After a hard fought match the team finished winning 62-43 🙂
 
This completed a 100% record for this season after winning against Edmonton County and St Ignatius previously.
 
Well done to all those involved from an incredibly proud Mr Smith!

‘Guo Nian Hao’ – It’s the year of the Tiger! 新年快乐

1st February 2022Mrs S Field

Happy Chinese New Year! 新年快乐 

2022 is the Year of the Tiger. The tiger is known to be king of all beasts in China and comes third in the Chinese zodiac. The qualities associated with the tiger are competitive, self-confident, brave, willpower and strength.

Students – head over to our Upper School library where Mrs Rudolph with the help of our Pupil Librarians has put up some decorations including posters designed by Berat, each with an interesting fact about the Chinese New Year.

Chinese New Year, also known as the Lunar New Year, is the festival that celebrates the beginning of a new year on the traditional lunisolar and solar Chinese calendar

Celebrations traditionally last for 16 days, starting from Chinese New Year’s Eve (1st February 2022)  to the Lantern Festival (15th February 2022).

The 12 animals consist of Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig.

More specifically, 2022 is a Year of Water Tiger, starting from February 1st, 2022, and lasting until January 21st, 2023.

Recent/upcoming years of the Tiger are 1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998, 2010, and 2022.
