Japanese traditional sports

Sydney University hosted some university students from Nihon Taiiku Daigaku in Japan. They demonstrated a range of Japanese traditional sports, music and dance such as sumo, kendo, kyudo (archery), karate, shorinji kenpo and aikido.
My favourite performances were taiko drumming, kendo and karate.

A place to share our learning

This blog has been set up for students and teachers to share their learning about Japan and its language.
One good place to visit is Kids Web Japan. You can play virtual games and learn about Japan in a fun way.
