Cultural Thangs

In September, we did cultural, er, thangs like a cooking class and school bunkasais (culture festivals), including Fiona's shodo (calligraphy) display part II. Here's a selection.

Here's the initial ingredients for homemade tempura. We were informed it was incredibly healthy... because it's Japanese, and all Japanese food is healthy, right? Simple.

Fiona's bunkasai involved her dancing the Matsuken Samba (don't ask) with her teachers in yukata (summer kimono). There was also a display of pool prowess from the cool boys of class 2-6, and her calligraphy was once more on display.

Sam also had a bunkasai. This involved the English Club baking banana bread for reasons largely known unto themselves. Meanwhile, everyone else dressed up in costumes to give weird performances.
