Happy Diwali!

WOW! What a fun filled day we have had in Year 2. All of the children looked fantastic in their brightly coloured clothing.

Throughout the day the children have been taking part in four activities.
1. Cooking: making sweets called Chokito.

The children will be writing their own recipe cards which they will be bringing home at the end of the week.

2. Mendhi patterns. The children drew their own designs on a hand template and also had mendhi patterns painted on their hands or feet.

3. Making Diva Lamps out of clay.

4. Badminton: Indian sport.

Thank you so much for the ladies that came in and helped with the cooking and Mendhi patterns today.

I was delighted to see so many parents turn up for our tasting, we could just about squeeze in our room! I hope that you enjoyed tasting the curry, Bombay potatoes and samosa that the children have been cooking this week.

Diwali day was a great success!! All the photos will be on the whiteboard in the morning.
