Our new topic is Festivals. We are exploring lots of different festivals from now until the Christmas holidays. This week we learned all about Halloween and how it links to The feast of All Saints and All Souls’ Day too. Here’s what we have been up to so far……
We learned where our food comes from in autumn and used our observational skills to colour mix and paint these Starlight Pumpkins.
We learned about some popular saints- St. Peter, St Andrew, St Francis of Assisi, St Teresa of Calcutta and made our own mini books to help us pray.
This week is also the festival of Diwali for Hindus and Sikhs. It is a festival of light so we used our cutting and folding skills to make these Diwali lanterns.
