The Primary School In Nagano Pref Has the Skating Lessons at The Paddy Field

According to NHK news web easy, the primary school in Komoro City in Nagano, is giving the lessons of how to grow rice at the paddy field. In winters, the neighbors and the school put water in a paddy field to make it frozen in order to make a skating rink. The size is approximately 30 meters x 10 meters.

At the end of the last month, the paddy field froze and was ready for an ice skating. This year, to prevent from spreading the covit 19, the lesson has been held by one class per a session.

The third year student said 「I have fallen many times but I was happy to have done the skating with everyone. It was so enjoyable that I did not even feel cold.」. The person who makes a skating rink every year said 「Just looking at the children skating I forget how hard it was to make the skating rink」.

長野県ながのけんの小学校しょうがっこう 田たんぼでスケートの授業じゅぎょう

[1月25日 12時00分]

長野県ながのけん小諸市こもろしの小学校しょうがっこうでは、田たんぼで稲いねを育そだてる授業じゅぎょうをしています。冬ふゆになると、近所きんじょの人ひとと学校がっこうが田たんぼに水みずを入いれて凍こおらせて、スケートリンクを作つくります。大おおきさは縦たて30m、横よこ10mぐらいです。

先月せんげつ下旬げじゅん、田たんぼが凍こおって、スケートができるようになりました。今年ことしは新型しんがたコロナウイルスがうつらないように、1クラスずつスケートの授業じゅぎょうを行おこなっています。

3年生ねんせいの男おとこの子こは「たくさん転ころんだけど、みんなと滑すべることができて、うれしかったです。楽たのしくて寒さむくありませんでした」と話はなしていました。毎年まいとし、スケートリンクを作つくっている人ひとは「滑すべっている子こどもたちを見みると、大変たいへんだったことを忘わすれます」と話はなしていました。

I was born in Komoro city. This article reminds me of my childhood. I used to do a skating on a paddy filed at the back of my school. To be honest I hate winters now, but it is very strange isn’t it when I was a child I did not even feel cold at all. The photo below was taken when I went back to my home town in January 2017. It was bitterly cold and snowed.

  1. It is thoughtful to build the ice rink. Ice skating is a great way to enjoy the cold weather.
