My favourite Culture celebration

Hello guys, Today in our ESOL lesson we have to blog about what kind of culture that I like to celebrate in Newzealand. Our ESOL teacher said that we have to post it on our blog. I blog about what my family culture celebrates and celebrated once a year.

What is Culture?

Culture for me is like where other countries do things like there make their own traditional music, art, clothing, tools, beliefs etc. There are 195 countries in the world each of the countries has different culture and beliefs. For example, some people in their country do not believe. In my religion, we know that Jesus is god but in other people's religion in their country thinks that Jesus is not god. In different countries, they make their own music and most people in other countries doesn’t know what it means because is not there language they usually speak. Other countries make their own clothes and other country doesn't know what kind of clothes is that because in their country have clothes that they usually wear it and other countries have a different style of clothes.

What is Santo Nino?

My favourite cultural celebration is Santo Nino where a lot of  Filipino come together and celebrate Santo Nino. They make an event and all Filipino come together. In the Philippines, they celebrate Santo Nino in Cebu were a lot of people. We celebrate Santo Nino once a year On the third Sunday of January. There is another name of Santo Nino called Sinulog. Usually, Santo Nino is celebrated in other religion because in the Philippines there are a lot of languages we speak but for me, I can only speak 3 languages.

 In Cebu, we usually speak Bisaya one of the languages in the Philippines but some Tagalog join us to celebrate Santo Nino, the same country but different religion. I and My family join the Santo Nino in New Zealand where we always celebrate every year. My family friend making songs or like a dance that there gonna show for the people who will come to the Santo Nino event on the third Sunday of January. Usually, we have to go to the park and bring our own Santo Nino before we go inside of the church. First, we did is we went outside and bring Santo Nino and we make a line and dance Santo Nino walking to church and then after that, we have to go inside the church and take a mass after we take a mass we have to go to the house that we hire so we can celebrate there. Lots of Filipino bringing their own Filipino foods to share with other people.
