What a day of exuberant, joyful, colourful fun we had on Wednesday, when Kalpesh came to show us a bit more about the Hindu spring festival of colour, Holi! It was wonderful to watch the children immerse themselves in the moment, laughing and enjoying the permission to get very messy in the beautiful sunshine! The dance and music and the weather all conspired to create an atmosphere of real celebration. Thank you to all our families for supporting the children to participate so fully and to have such a glorious experience. Quite aside from the great learning about other cultures and faiths, the children were relaxed, happy and finding joy in the moment which was lovely to see.

We had great fun when KZ's dance visited us and taught us some Indian dances. We also learned about the Hindu festival of Holi and celebrated with coloured paint.

This week, (November 25) the school held a Diwali day hosted by Kalpesh of K’Z Dance, who told the children about Diwali traditions and stories, before launching into a Bollywood dance session.
