Diwali!


The Hindu festival of lights - Diwali started yesterday (Sunday the 3rd of November). It will be continuing for the next 5 days. 


Today in class we watched a video about the story of Diwali (the Ramayana) and learned a little about how Hindus celebrate this important festival. Here is a video showing one version of the Ramayana.  






You can learn about how Hindus celebrate Diwali here.



Finally, here is a video showing some celebrations from India.





We will also be making Rangoli patterns later this week!
