This week in Nursery we have been learning about Diwali, the festival of light that is celebrated by Hindus, Sikhs and Jains all over the world. We read a book called ‘Dipal’s Diwali’.
We learnt that Diwali is a very special celebration, with colourful decorations including rangoli patterns, fireworks and special food.
Mehndi is a special body art drawn onto the hands and arms. We made our own mehndi patterns.

Well done to Ryan and Joyce who enjoyed reading ‘Goldilocks and the Three Bears’ this week. They were both able to talk about what was happening in the pictures, with support. Well done you two!
Next week in Nursery we will be:
– Working on our number recognition, and matching numbers to quantities.
– Learning about the letter ‘a’.
– Beginning to learn about the story of Christmas.
