Year 6 have been learning about Sikhism this week, which tied in perfectly with the celebration of Diwali. We learnt how during Diwali, Sikhs light candles (called diyas) in the Gudwara, their place of worship. The kitchen in a Gudwara is called the langar. Anyone is welcome to share food from the langar, regardless of religion or background. We re-enacted sitting in the langar hall to eat some Indian food - chapatis, puri, dahl and Indian spiced rice. We lit diya lamps, hung up lights and decorations and played Indian music to experience some of the ways in which Diwali is celebrated by Sikhs.
