Whistle while you work

Rice harvesting is not all fun and games--accept when it is. After an afternoon of work, students slit the thick steams of the rice straw to form a whistle. Soon, the field sounded like a 1st grade birthday party.

Student rice harvesting, the school says, teaches students how much labor goes into each bowl they eat. The lesson must work has I hardly ever see rice wasted in the canteen.
