To celebrate Diwali, the Festival of Lights, our Year 2 children explored the meaning and traditions of this special festival, which is celebrated by millions of people around the world.
The children learned that Diwali is a time for joy, light, and togetherness. Families decorate their homes with diyas — small oil lamps — to symbolise the triumph of light over darkness and good over evil.
Using their colouring and collage skills, the children designed and decorated their own beautiful Diya lamps. They experimented with bright colours, tissue paper, sequins, and patterns, creating artwork that reflects the vibrancy and excitement of Diwali celebrations.
Each Diya is unique, just like the children who made them — together they create a glowing display of creativity, happiness, and learning.
✨ Happy Diwali!✨
This year Diwali starts on 21st Oct 2025 and lasts for 5 days
