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.
