This week, our nursery was filled with colour, light, and joy as we celebrated Diwali – the Festival of Lights!<\/strong><\/p>\n

We were delighted to welcome one of our wonderful nursery parents, who kindly came in and helped to decorate our nursery<\/strong> with beautiful, festive decorations. The children loved seeing all the bright colours and sparkling lights that transformed our space!<\/p>\n

To help our pupils learn more about Diwali, we enjoyed a range of fun and creative activities. The children made their own lanterns and diyas (small lamps)<\/strong>, which they decorated with glitter, sequins, and vibrant paints. We also had a special Diwali-themed Bookbug session<\/strong>, where we read stories that helped us understand the meaning behind the celebration.<\/p>\n

Throughout the day, the children coloured in pictures, sang songs<\/strong>, and explored the idea of light, love, and togetherness that Diwali represents. To finish off our celebrations, everyone got to take home some tasty treats<\/strong> to enjoy with their families.<\/p>\n

It was a truly magical day full of learning, laughter, and community spirit. A big thank you to our wonderful parent helper and to all the children for joining in so enthusiastically.<\/p>\n

Happy Diwali! \ud83e\ude94\u2728<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
