We were lucky to have Kaito's mum come in today and talk to us about live in Japan. Wow! There are so many people living in Japan - way more than in NZ.
We saw photos of Yuziki and Kaito dressed up in traditional Japanese clothing and were allowed to try some on. The girls looked beautiful in the kimono. The shoes are called geta and are made from wood.
We also watched some Sumo wrestling videos.
The heaviest sumo wrestler is 287kg that's 11.5 Kaito's or 3 Beauden Barrett's).
After that we were given an origami animal and we all had our name written on the back in Japanese.
The best part of the visit was getting to try the Japanese food. We had okonomiyaki (savoury pancake) and sushi.
Thank you so much for coming in!
We loved having you visit to help us celebrate the many cultures at Riverdale School.
