This week in Class AL, we learned about the Hindu festival of Janmashtami, which celebrates the birthday of Lord Krishna, and the children loved discovering that many Hindu children dress up as Krishna in colourful clothes and peacock feathers. We explored why Krishna is such an important figure in Hinduism and how the festival is a joyful way for families to show devotion. In R.E., we brought our learning to life, the class made their own Krishna figures, decorating them with bright colours and thoughtful details as they explored how people express their beliefs through celebration and art.
