Holi Festival
The children have come to school today in brightly coloured clothes today to mark the Hindu festival of Holi.
This celebration marks the end of winter and the start of spring and is usually celebrated by throwing brightly coloured powder paints into the air. If you would like to know more, I have shared the video the children have watched in school, along with some photos of Anker Valley in the bright coloured clothing. Thank you to our amazing parents for donations of seeds, bulbs and bedding plants for gardening club to make some brightly coloured hanging baskets and planters.
