Excitement in Reception with Diwali celebrations

As the Prep School returned to the classrooms today, after half term break, reception have begun their week by getting creative and celebrating Diwali.

Diwali is known as the festival of light and is celebrated with lots of colour whilst marking the start of the Hindu new year.

Reception celebrated by creating lots of colourful artwork including: ‘Happy Diwali’ cards, Diwali themed colour by numbers, Scratch colour sheets in the style of Rangoli art, beautifully painted Urli pots, and finally they stencilled their hands to create some colourful, sparkly Mendi.

It was great to see them all back in the classroom enjoying the range of activities.
