今日の給食のご飯は、自分達で収獲と脱穀をしたお米でした。ご飯が自分の前に来ると、目を輝かせ早く食べたい様子を見せていました。配膳が終わると先生から事前のおにぎり指導を受け、自分でおにぎりも作り食べました。学校で育て、自分で握ったおにぎりはいつもとは違った美味しさがあったようで笑顔いっぱいに頬張っていました。

Today at lunch, the students enjoyed the rice that grew and harvested themselves. Their eyes lit up when they saw the rice, and they looked very excited to eat it. They also got a mini-course on how to make their own little balls of onigiri from the teachers. The kids were able to enjoy a different flavor of rice than usual. It was good to see the smiles on all of their faces as they stuffed their faces.
