Celebrating Diwali
We have really enjoyed learning all about the Festival of Light - Diwali.
We had a Diwali feast to celebrate.
We tried poppadoms, naan bread, raita dip, mango chutney, pilau rice and onion bahjis.
Some of us enjoyed trying everything, but some of us weren't so keen! But most importantly, everyone tried something new.
We had to clean our 'house' to prepare for the celebration.
We created thrones and a palace for Prince Rama and his wife Princess Sita.
We had fun creating lots of different rangoli patterns too.
We made story maps to retell the story of Rama and Sita.
We talked lots about how Diwali is celebrated and compared it to other special times.
We made diva lamps using sparkly playdough.
A fantastic week of celebrations!
