To celebrate Diwali at Normanhurst, our Early Years and Junior pupils learnt all about the celebration, ate some traditional Indian food including onion bhajis and poppadoms with mango chutney, learnt some Indian dance moves and even took a quiz! The pupils loved learning about the celebration of the festival of lights and finding out about the triumph of light over darkness. Here is what a few Early Years pupils had to say:
“We ate some poppadoms and dipped it in mango chutney. It was very yummy.”- Lenna-Mae
“I really liked poppadoms and dipping them.”- Leo
“Me and Lilia didn’t like the spicy thing and the sauce, only the poppadoms”.- Isla
“In the book they made a picture with sand.”- Isla
“The little pattern things were nice”- Lenna-Mae
