On 15th November we enjoyed a special assembly, Jayamini de Silva joined us to explain how she and her family celebrate Diwali. During the assembly we looked at traditional Diwali items. A member of staff was also dressed in a sari – the children were fascinated by the way in which this was assembled. At the end of the assembly, several pupils were given the opportunity to ask questions which they did politely and with great interest. The assembly was followed by a range of workshops across different year groups, whereby the children were able to make traditional Diwali items.
