Celebrating Diwali

We had a lovely day celebrating the Hindu festival of light, Diwali. We made diva lamps and lanterns, wrote messages in Diwali cards, made mendhi and rangoli patterns and listened to a story about Rama and Sita. We were also very lucky to have a visit from Mrs Shanbhag and her son to talk to us about how they celebrate Diwali in their family. Some of us were able to try on some traditional clothes and they all took home the kind gift of some sweets.
