Towards the end of the ceremony, each student must crawl up to their
teacher on their knees with their heads down. Then the students bow to
their teachers and offer them their individual bouquet of flowers wrapped
with candles and incense. The teacher receives the flowers and gives the
student advice. Some teachers will also pat the student’s head to
encourage the knowledge to absorb into the child’s brain. The flowers
from the ceremony were taken by the teachers and staff to decorate their
rooms and offices.
