Hello Mito Amity students and family! (o´▽o)ﾉ

 

Happy Halloween part 4! This is the last segment of this month`s Halloween series. Today, we will be talking about Halloween in Japan!

Japanese people did not adopt every aspect of this month`s spooky holiday, but they did adopt the spooky fun aspect of dressing in costume! People typically dress up and celebrate in bars, street parties, or with family and friends at home! While there is no candy being passed out, many stores have seasonal treats in Halloween`s colors of orange, purple, and black. There are also various Halloween events at theme parks such as Disneyland and Universal Studios.

From Friday October 25^th to Thursday October 31^st, you can wear your Halloween costume to Amity! If you have no costume or Halloween-themed clothes, wear something orange, purple, or black. Let`s have fun this Halloween week together! We look forward to seeing you in your next Amity lesson!

 

Sincerely,

Your English Teachers at Mito Amity ☆⌒(≧▽​° )

Hello Mito Amity students and family! (≧▽≦)/

 

Happy Halloween part 3! I hope everyone enjoyed reading about Mexico, Guatemala, and Costa Rica`s October celebrations in last week`s post. This week`s post will be about Italy`s Ognissanti and the Philippine’s Pangangaluwa. Both of these celebrations are dedicated for All Saints Day.

All Saints Day is a religious holiday celebrated by many sects of the Christian church, most especially the Catholic church. It is a day to commemorate all the saints for the Christian denominations that do celebrate these special religious figures. This holiday was first established by Pope Gregory III when he dedicated a chapel in Rome’s St. Peter’s Basilica in honor of all saints. All Saints’ Day is observed publicly in many countries. For example, France and Germany also have this day off of work and businesses remain closed for the occasion.

Ognissanti is how Italy celebrates All Saints Day. Celebrated on November 1^st, Ognissanti is a day for Italians to honor the martyrs and saints of the Catholic Church. The various regions of Italy each have their own rituals and traditions for the holiday. In Sicily, it’s believed that the dead will bring sweets or small gifts to well-behaved children. In the Lombardy region, it’s customary to leave a vase full of water in the kitchen for the dead to drink when they visit during the night.

Pangangaluluwa is a Filipino practice for honoring souls that have passed. On the evening of All Saints Day, children dress up in a white sheet to look like ghosts and knock on doors to sing and ask for prayers. Similar to Halloween, the children will sometimes receive treats. Pangangaluluwa is also a time for families to gather at cemeteries to remember their loved ones with food, games, and stories.

I hope everyone enjoyed learning about these October celebrations from around the world! We will talk about more Halloween fun in next week`s post. Until then, we look forward to seeing you in your next Amity lesson!
