Sweets Exhibition Notes
A shared table …
Sweet foods delight us and mark special times in our lives. They are an indulgence
shared across cultures and created over generations by individuals and families.
Sweets: tastes and traditions from many cultures is the result of a collaboration by
members of the Indian, Italian, Japanese, Mauritian and Turkish communities in
Victoria. To create this exhibition individuals came together to share traditions, stories
and favourite recipes. New friendships were forges, special memories shared and
many new sweets were tasted.
In this community exhibition at the Immigration Museum visitors can explore the
history and cultural significance of sweet foods and find out how sweetness is
important to everyone.
Different cultures use sweets for many reasons and purposes – to mark important
rituals, celebrations and life events. Discover special sweet foods from each of the
Indian, Italian, Japanese, Mauritian and Turkish cultures, the ways in which many of
them are made and the significance they hold.
Featuring fascinating objects, lively photographs and multimedia, the Sweets
exhibition will reveal unique perspectives on a very common and popular food.
This education resource has been prepared specifically for students of Japanese
language and provides specific tasks related to the sweets (おかし) shared by the
Japanese community in the exhibition.

Teacher Notes
おかし
Background Information
おかし, おやつ and あめ can often be confused with one another. Teachers may
like to explain to students the differences between each word when beginning this
topic.
おかし
a general term which refers to Japanese sweets, confectionary and
desserts. おかし can include rice crackers such as(お)せんべい,
おかき, あられ and other non-sweet snacks. おかし is usually used for
sweets and snacks that you can take home with or take to other places.
For instance, かきごおり (snow cones) are not considered おかし in
the Japanese sense.
おやつ
refers to a snack or afternoon tea.
あめ
refers to lollies.
わがし
refers specifically to Japanese confectionary.
Similarly, there may be confusion around the use of the terms ちゃのゆ and
さどう. Both refer to the tea ceremony however, さどう has a more philosophical
connotation, literally meaning ‘way (or principle) of the tea’.
Note: Not all sweets featured in the on-site activities are featured in the exhibition,
therefore will require some pre or post visit research.

a simple recipe.
2)
ビデオをつくってみよう
Create a video
Students create a short film in Japanese around one of the following topics:
3)
•
Cooking show

リサーチプロジェクト
4) Research project
Students research other types of Japanese sweets (not featured in the exhibition)
and create a narrated presentation using PowerPoint or Photo Story.
Students may like to research Japanese sweets found in modern day society and
culture. This could be done as a fact finding mission by visiting Asian grocery stores
in and around the city.
5) Tea Ceremony
さどうをやってみよう
Recreate a tea ceremony in the classroom. Consider the following:
• correct order of doing things
•
names of the tools used
•
names of the sweets
•
etiquette (e.g. bowing, admiring and holding the bowl etc.)
Note: you may consider inviting a member from a Tea Ceremony association (see
Resources section) to your school.
Intercultural Focus
•
Ask students to watch the video about the tea ceremony.
•
Encourage students to notice three interesting or surprising things in the
video.
•
Ask students to compare the ritual of the tea ceremony to a food or drink
ritual Australia. Do we have anything similar in modern day Australian
culture? What about other cultures? Do a whole class PMI (Plus, Minus,
Interesting) activity. (よいてん、わるいてん、おもしろいてん)
•
Encourage students to reflect on what they saw in the video. What can we
learn about the Japanese people, culture and language by observing the tea
ceremony?
•
Have students interact with other speakers of Japanese in a tea ceremony
role play or by inviting someone to demonstrate the tea ceremony at school
or at the museum.

Japanese tea ceremony - Adam Wojcinski
The Ceremony
The Japanese tea ceremony is an art that developed from the
practice of tea drinking in Zen temples. It has developed as the
embodiment of the tranquil mind state and values involved in
Zen practice.
In a tea ceremony, powdered green tea or ‘matcha’ is prepared
in front of guests according to a highly structured procedure.
The practice of the tea ceremony, however, involves much
more what its English name suggests. The tea ceremony, or
‘chanoyu’ in Japanese, involves all the activities leading to tea
drinking; all the utensils used in the tea ceremony; the entire
atmosphere surrounding the procedure; and the most
important phase, the frame of mind or the spirit which grows
out of the combination of all these factors.
While studying the tea ceremony, one learns about many arts
that are themselves separate disciplines outside the tea
ceremony. These include many of the major Japanese arts
such as ceramics, calligraphy, poetry, flowers and kaiseki
cuisine. Practicing the tea ceremony helps people think more
clearly, relax, become more disciplined and beautify
interactions with others.
In feudal Japan, chanoyu and Zen were widely practised and
held in high esteem by the samurai. The Ueda Sōko Tradition
of Chanoyu was founded in Hiroshima in the early 1600s by
warlord and tea master Ueda Sōko from whom the Tradition
takes its name.
The Presenter
Adam Wojcinski is part of the first Australian group of the
Ueda Sōko Tradition of Japanese tea ceremony. He regularly
holds tea ceremony practice as well as performances.
Adam’s school presentations reveal essential aspects of
Japanese culture to the students. He will demonstrate the tea
ceremony to them, with some students being involved.
Maximum number: class size (approx 25 students)
