More than just lunch 🍱✨ @ our Bento Making Workshop 

Our students stepped into the kitchen during their co-curricular to learn how to make their own bento. Bento has been part of Japanese food culture for centuries, known for its balance, thoughtful presentation, and attention to detail. Traditionally, a bento includes rice, protein, and vegetables arranged in a way that is both nutritious and visually appealing. From carefully packed rice to colorful side dishes, everyone brought their own creativity to the experience. 

We even spotted some kawaii touches, including rice pandas and other fun designs 🐼💛

It was such a special way to see students express themselves while learning about the care and intention behind the art of cooking in Japan 🍙🌸 

What would you put in your bento box?
