Lions had a great time learning about Diwali, they fist read a story about Diwali and how is is celebrated around the world. 

The children made their own Diva lamps using salt dough and making it into a ball shape, one it was cooked they were able to decorate it using paint and sequins.  

The children made their own fireworks pictures, which are used to celebrate Diwali the festival of lights. 

By the children learning about this festival it supports their learning and development in all areas of learning and through them parents and practitioners can support children beginning to understand the commonalities  of human values that are shared by all cultures and religions.
