Day: July 11, 2022

Today we had our Tanabata Concert here at Beanstalk.

Everyone came dressed so nicely in their summery yukata and jinbei!

And what Tanabata would be complete without writing a wish?

Before they sang their songs, students put lots of thought into writing their wishes and hung them on bamboo branches decorated throughout the school.

We were lucky to have fine weather- that means the star-crossed lovers’ wish to meet came true.

We hope everyone’s wishes come true, too!

Tanabata is a festival that is celebrated every year in July.

When this time of year comes around, people write their wishes on strips of paper and hang them on bamboo trees, along with decorations.

You can see this almost everywhere.

And this year we are all thrilled to be able to perform in front of our parents!

We also made special crafts for decoration.

We can’t wait to show everyone!
