As part of our Harvest week we were delighted to welcome Imo and Kiran, who came to school yesterday to run workshops with the children about Indian Harvest. Each class took part in two workshops and two assemblies where the children learned all sorts of fascinating facts about how people in India celebrate bringing in their harvest. Did you know that in India they decorate the termite mounds at harvest time? The children also got to dance, make rangoli patterns, make block patterns and learned how Indian children would start they day at school, how Indian farming differed from our own farming methods and how food would be blessed. During the day we also created an amazing banner showing three different elements of Indian harvest - In the jungle, fields and town. This will be displayed proudly in our hall for our harvest celebrations. Come and have a closer look and see if you can spot all of the animals.
