Today, Mrs Hutton visited and showed us how to make some origami art. We decorated carp flags and made samurai hats. Mrs Hutton also made some yummy sushi for us to enjoy. The reason she came to visit is because on Saturday 5th May, Japan celebrates Children's Day or
Kodomo-no-hi. This day use to be called Boy's Festival and was for celebrating boy's growing up, but now it has become a day to celebrate all children.
On this day, families with boys display dolls for the Boy's Festival dressed as warriors and heroes, and fly carp streamers. We learned that carp are strong enough to swim up waterfalls and are symbols of success in life.
We had fun learning about Japan's Children's Day.
Doumo arigatou gozaimasu Mrs Hutton.
