Diwali, also known as the Festival of Lights, is one of the most joyful and important festivals celebrated by millions of people around the world. It is traditionally associated with the victory of light over darkness, good over evil, and hope over despair. Diwali is widely celebrated in India and in many other countries, including Nepal, Sri Lanka, Singapore, Malaysia and the UK.

At Also School, we had a wonderful time celebrating Diwali with our children! The school was filled with colour, creativity and excitement as the children decorated beautiful Happy Diwali displays, created colourful patterns and designed lovely posters to celebrate this special occasion.

We also organised an exciting competition and a fun Diwali quiz, giving the children the opportunity to learn more about the traditions, stories and cultural significance of this festival. Of course, no celebration would be complete without sharing some delicious sweets!

During lunchtime, children from across the school came together to take part in the celebrations, making it a truly special and memorable occasion.

It was lovely to see so many children getting involved, sharing their creativity and learning about a different culture. We hope everyone enjoyed this wonderful celebration and took away some new knowledge and happy memories.

Happy Diwali to all those celebrating!
