Diwali Day

Diwali falls on November 3rd this year, but what is it?

That's the question Year 5 were learning to answer yesterday. Priti, a local Hindu woman from the Southampton Vedic Centre, shared the story of Rama and what it means to Hindus. We talked about the customs of Hindus, and found out how they will be celebrating Diwali this year.

Have a look at the rangoli designs we made, can you spot any 2D shapes while you are at it?
