Hakka Floral Fabric

Hakka floral fabric is a symbol of wealth because of the peony pattern on it. It is said that long time ago the Hakka were very poor. So they collected some fabric that was discarded. Then they sewed the pieces together, and that’s the Hakka floral fabric today. The other one about the origin is that they used a cheap kind of fabric to make Hakka cloth. Because they used petals to design the patterns of the flowers, it’s Hakka floral fabric. Today, people use Hakka floral fabric to make many things, like puppets, skirts, bags etc.

Food fair

Having a food fair activity is quite good. We can learn English from the interesting activities, not only from the boring books. The food fair seems only playful, but we still learn lots of things like, the name of the food, the recipes, the table manners of each country or even save the money from the dinner. Also we developed our relationship and learn how to help with each other. We spend a lot of time doing this but this is more important than learning English from books.
