Year 3 – Hanamatsuri

Year Three children have been learning about festivals celebrated in other faiths.

During their art lesson this week they learnt about the Buddhist festival, Hanamatsuri. This Japanese flower festival celebrates the birthday of the Buddha Shakyamuni’s born in 565 AD. The flowers commemorate the Buddha’s birth in a garden.

The children then created their colourful gardens for the festival.
