Year 5 children had an enriching experience during a special workshop on Sikhism on Wednesday afternoon, where visitors from a gurdwara shared fascinating insights about the faith. The session covered key topics such as the 5Ks and their symbolic meanings, the Golden Temple in Amritsar and its incredible langar, which serves over 60,000 people daily. The children also learnt about attractions like Osborne House, discovering that the Durbar Room was designed by Lockwood Kipling and his master carver, Bhai Ram Singh. A highlight of the session was when a lady played the Dilruba, an Indian instrument similar to a violin, and even let some children have a go at playing it. To top off the experience, the visitors also brought delicious sweets, including Mitai, which were thoroughly enjoyed by staff. Thank you to our guests for visiting the school!
