Cantonese Opera – a talk
中文学校和汉语角联合举办了一场别开生面的粤剧讲座

On a Saturday afternoon (17 Sep 2011) we were treated to a talk on Cantonese opera by Stan Chan, an expert in traditional Chinese brush painting and calligraphy, and who also happens to be a Cantonese opera fan and performer.

He talked about how he got interested in operas as a very young boy, and the opportunities that fell his way to have that love nurtured. It was pretty hard work and dedication on his part, too.

Stan also showed us gorgeous costumes and opera props, explaining their use and significance, all complemented by photographs of some well known operas.

The afternoon talk went quickly, and closed with Stan himself singing an excerpt from an opera, all impromptu. It is so gracious of him to do it, and of, course, so gracious of him to give us his time to come to us to give that talk.

parent's feedback and Molly's classmate comments

My son Dickson Mo, studied at WCLS for several years. The School provided an excellent environment for the learning of Mandarin, and excellent teachers who could bring out the best in students. Dickson can now speak and write Mandarin very confidently. As parents, my wife and I thank your school from the bottom of our hearts. We are from Hong Kong and we speak little Mandarin. All our son's Chinese has been learnt from your School. Whenever I see someone whose children are not learning Chinese, I always tell them where to go - Wellington Chinese Language School!

David Mo



Young Dickson is self motivated. He's an achiever. The parents were always in the background supporting him and his sister. When they couldn't take him to or from the Chinese classes, there were relatives or friends to assist, or sometimes he made the journey be train and foot. Certainly our class environment has been a friendly, encouraging, non-threatening one in all the years I had attended classes. There had been a lot of laughs with occasional outrageous contributions from me. Dickson was always committed, and would do more homework than was given. We valued his presence, as his youthfulness in an adult class contributed to the culture of the class. He took part in speech contests every year with our encouragement and support. He practised in class while we critiqued his speeches, and he took all comments with good grace. His parents would unfailingly be present in all his elocution efforts. He also made frequent trips to Hong Kong - sometimes more than a trip in a year, so the Chineseness in him must have been reinforced. I believe his achievement is due to his own work ethic, his parents' support and encouragement, and our wonderful hard working encouraging teachers in the adult classes.
