国際交流基金の出向者による七五三の説明を聞いているところ。
The Japan Foundation made presentation about traditional "Shichi-Go-San" celebration.
Shichi-Go-San ("Seven-Five-Three") is a traditional rite of passage and festival day in Japan for three- and seven-year-old girls and three- and five-year-old boys, held annually on November 15 to celebrate the growth and well-being of young children. (Wikipedia)
餅つき大会 (1月)
MOCHI (Rice Cake) Pounding Festival (December)
We started this tradition in 2016 and it is being enjoyed by the students, families and friends from our local community.
Mochi-tsuki is an event welcoming the new year in traditional Japanese style, using traditional implements.
Much as black-eyed peas are considered a symbolically lucky dish in parts of the U.S., in Japan, foods made with mochi - or condensed, sticky rice cakes - are thought to bring health and prosperity when consumed as part of a New Year’s celebration.
