This week we learnt about the Hindu and Sikh festival of Light called Diwali - the children made tea light holders from clay and painted them in silver and gold.
The firework cake was made using an electric whisk - much loved by alot of the boys ! - the finished cake was decked with sparklers and we all sat around outside on crates to watch them sparkle - good fun !
The safety talk was taken very seriously - the children took notes home to their parents explain some frightening facts - like 3 sparklers are as hot as a blow torch !
We made a huge firework frieze by splodging teabags and paint onto a sheet of brown paper - we then splattered bright paints and made rockets out of roller paper and paper straws - it looked fab and the children made the firework noises as they worked.
