Class Abba have been celebrating Diwali the Hindu festival of Light. We discussed the different ways that people celebrate Diwali, such as wearing special clothes, decorating their houses to welcome Goddess Lakshmi and watching spectacular displays of fireworks. We then took part in some activities that included making and decorating our own clay Diyas, creating Rangoli patterns, learning the story of Rama and Sita and designing mendhi hand print patterns.
