Autumn Term Week 7: Diwali & Bhandi Chorr

This week we will be teaching children about Diwali and Bhandi Chorr.  We will talk to children about how Hindus and Sikhs celebrate this festival in different ways .

Children will be decorating divas and will learn all about the importance of light in both of these festivals. We will ask children how they celebrate their festivals and look at differences in celebrations.

To take this learning further we will look at the food that is eaten during these celebrations

We will celebrate Diwali/Bhandi Chorr on Wednesday morning,  a company called Active 4 Kids will be coming in to host some fun games with the children. If you would like an extra session on Wednesday morning please let Suki know as soon as possible. Food will be provided at the party please could you contribute £5 towards the party.

If your family are celebrating Diwali or Bhandhi Chorr we wish you happy celebrations. Please be safe and enjoy your day.
