Diwali and Bandi Chorr Divas

This year Diwali and Bandi Chorr Divas was celebrated across the world on Monday 24th October 2022.

On Thursday 20th October, Mrs Bhogal led an assembly all about this festival. She spoke about the different religions that celebrate Diwali. Bandi Chorr Divas is the Sikh festival, which falls on the same day as Diwali.

The children were very interested to find out how it is celebrated and some of our Hindu and Sikh children were able to share what they do.

Lots of Diwali activities took place in school, including making clay divas (see photograph).
