Fundraiser to Benefit the NH Food Bank:
Help us to Help Others!

January 2025 - Student Activity Sheet

NEW YEAR—NEW GOALS:
DARUMA Activity Sheet. Jan.1 through Feb.1, 2025
The Daruma perfectly illustrates the Japanese proverb "nana korobi ya oki" which can be translated as "fall seven times, get up eight times". In other words, it is important to remember that, when setting goals, no matter how many times you fall short of your goal, it’s important to ‘dust yourself off’ and keep on trying. (ie. Never Give Up!)
The Daruma is a lucky charm, but above all it is a powerful symbol of perseverance.
Pick up a GC Daruma Activity Sheet from your instructor. Set Your Goal, Color Your Daruma, and Get Started!
Activity runs from Jan.1—Feb.1, 2025. Please return all completed sheets to the office by Wed, Feb.5th, to earn extra class credit; Additionally, students will be entered to win prizes. Questions? Please email us, or speak with an instructor. Thank you!
