31st October
Today was Cultural Day at my Junior High School. We walked with all the students to a hall in the city – they were so well behaved I couldn’t believe it!
The day started with a choral performance by each year level and then each class.
All the first grade students choral performance.
We then had lunch – a great bento box.
Two of my first grade students and me!
I then went to see the students perform a tea ceremony and I got to have a sweet and green tea – yum!

A few of my favourite students and Kakuda-sensei!
Me with the students in the tea ceremony club.
We then saw a kyogen performance (Japanese traditional comedy). And learnt about instruments and how to wear a kimono for Noh theatre.

We then saw a Noh performance (traditional Japanese theatre).
Then it was time for the awards for the best choral performance before packing up and walking back to school.
It was a great day and I finally got to see Noh which I hadn’t seen before and once again I was shown how well behaved all the students are at my school!
