3 March is Hina Matsuri 3月3日はひな祭り

Image
  Hinamatsuri  is one of the five seasonal festivals ( 五節句 ,  gosekku ) that are held on auspicious dates of the  Chinese calendar : the first day of the first month, the third day of the third month, and so on. After the adoption of the  Gregorian calendar , these were fixed on  1   January , 3   March,  5   May ,  7   July , and  9   September . The festival was traditionally known as the Peach Festival ( 桃の節句 ,  Momo no Sekku ), as  peach  trees typically began to flower around this time. [4]  Although this is no longer true since the shift to Gregorian dates, the name remains and peaches are still symbolic of the festival. [5] The primary aspect of  Hinamatsuri  is the display of seated male and female dolls (the  obina  ( 男雛 , "male doll") and  mebina  ( 女雛 , "female doll")), which represent a Heian period wedding, [5]  but are usually described as the Emperor and Empress of Japan. [6]  The dolls are usually seated on red cloth, and may be as simple as pictures

  IJSP Online Program 石川県の皆さんと オンライン日本語クラス The Ishikawa Foundation for International Exchange is again offering on-line Japanese language classes. The Institute has been offering language courses, in collaboration with the Australia - Japan Society of the Australian Capital Territory, since 1997 and until Covid these were held at the Institute in Ishikawa, Japan. They included homestays with Japanese families in Ishikawa. Covid lockdowns, of course, prevented the continuation of in-country courses but in 2021 we started the on-line classes. While homestays are (of course) not possible, the classes include conversations with Japanese families. The attached information sheet outlines the courses now available. Some of your members may be interested in refreshing their language skills. * Please apply through the Australia – Japan Society (ACT). For those who live in South Australia, please contact Kyoko, AJAofSA at ajaofsa@gmail.com The Ishikawa Foundation for International Excha
