“The Year 8 Japanese class enjoyed designing, making and eating their ‘Kyaraben’ – Bento which looks like a cute character.

Students had a great time collaborating and tasting the fruits of their labour.

Kaleb: "It looks easy, but it’s actually quite difficult! The hardest part was turning the sticky rice to onigiri (rice balls)"

Isabelle: "It was very fun, and we all learnt the diverse ways that they make kyaraben in Japan"

Travis: "It was yummy, even though making onigiri was hard."
