Over the last two weeks we have been learning about fireworks and celebrating Diwali (the Hindu festival of light). We made and decorated clay divas, painted firework pictures, watched information videos about how families celebrate, explored artefacts and clothes and decorated our hands with henna. We also created Rangoli patterns using chalk, pens, buttons/jewels and coloured rice, decorated handprints, looked at books, read the story of Rama and Sita and tasted traditional food.
