KS1-Eid Celebration

What a fantastic day in KS1!

We built on our previous  learning about Eid and Ramadan to talk about how different cultures celebrate religious festivals. 

The children were then invited to join in the making of a popular Eid snack food which made up part of the fantastic spread of food at our afternoon celebration. 

We also got together to learn a Bollywood style dance routine as part of the partying. The children all joined in and did such a good job that Mrs Hunter decided they should do it in the whole school assembly and teach all the older children their dance moves! 

After the whole school assembly, with a brilliant introduction by some of the KS2 pupils, all children were invited to stay in the hall and join in the festivities. Many children chose to get a temporary tattoo, whereas some went straight for the food table! Thanks to the hard work and generosity of some fabulous parents and friends of the school, the children and staff enjoyed a fabulous spread of food and drink in the school hall. There was so much delicious food and it was fantastic to see so many children willing to try different and unfamiliar foods. A great time was had by all!

Thank you for all the donations to charity and to all the parents involved.
