One Friday, year 5 and 6 had a person come in and tell us about Japanese tea ceremonies. Some people said that the tea was really bitter but others said that it was really nice. The Japanese lady also brought in some biscuits (which had seaweed around them) for us to eat with the tea. They were delicious. The lady talked to us about a lot of things! For example, fans, kimono and how to drink tea with the right posture (interesting!).
