This week, the children have been learning all about Diwali, the festival of light. We shared a lovely story about Diwali and explored how it is celebrated. The children were very engaged throughout the story and were able to identify and recall key events.

The children also had the opportunity to make their very own tea lights, which they decorated with paint and glitter to make them sparkle. We also enjoyed a mark-making activity using chalk, where the children created their own beautiful Rangoli patterns. 

On Remembrance Day, we set up a poppy-making activity in our art area. The children enjoyed colouring their poppies using red and green markers.

Next week we will be reading Hippo Has A Hat.
