International Club Notices

This week, members of the International Club enjoyed a wonderful sushi-making workshop hosted at the home of one of our club mums and led by another mum from Japan, who generously shared her knowledge, skills, and culture with us.

During the session, we learned how to prepare sushi rice, discovered the importance of different ingredients, and tasted delicious traditional green tea. Our expert instructor guided us through making several types of sushi, including hosomaki, uramaki, futomaki, and temaki. Everyone had the opportunity to practise rolling, filling and creating their own sushi, with plenty of laughter and teamwork along the way.

The workshop was about much more than food. It was a fantastic opportunity to learn about Japanese culture, exchange stories, and enjoy the company of families from different backgrounds. The kitchen was filled with conversation, curiosity, and friendship as we worked together and shared our experiences.

A huge thank you to our host and to our Japanese instructor for creating such a memorable and enjoyable event. We all left with new skills, new knowledge, and some very tasty sushi to enjoy!

The International Club continues to be a wonderful way to celebrate cultural diversity, learn from one another, and build friendships across our school community.

St Michel's International Club embraced the muddiness this week, along with a couple of our four legged companions who were simply overjoyed to get mucky! We had a lovely circular walk around Ightham and finished up with a roundtable chat over a cup of tea.
