On Monday the 29th of August, North Asia Cape, Learn English Live and Korean Education Centre came to our school. They taught us about Korean culture and some of the traditional games. These included Tuho, Archery and Jegi.

Jegi is a traditional Korean game that you can play by yourself or with a group of people. You have a little sparkly pom-pom thing called a Jegi and you have to bounce it up and down on your foot as many times as you can. (I only managed to bounce it up and down five times).

Tuho is a traditional game which was played by the rich to calm down. It was our personal favourite. There was a pot with four rings on its side. If you get the arrow (which you throw) into the pot you get 5 points but if you get it in one of the rings you get 1. The way we played was if the arrow bounced out it didn’t count.

The last game there was to play was archery. I think everyone already knows how to play, so I don’t need to go into much detail about that, but it was every bit amazing as the rest.

Overall it was really fun and I think I speak for all the students that joined us when I say we will never forget this experience. Thank you to all the people who made this happen.
