Year 4 India Day

February 11, 2015
Year 4 experienced the delights of India. They learnt some Bollywood dance moves, tried different Indian food, made samosas and took part in Indian arts and crafts. The children discussed and experienced life in Chembakolli through an interactive workshop and were able to try on traditional Indian saris. They thoroughly enjoyed their day a had a true taste of typical Indian lifestyles.

"Learning all about India was very interesting. I was surprised that some poor people in India don't wear shoes, they drink from rivers and they live in mud and cow dung houses. It made me realise how lucky we are." (Rebecca)

"Samosa making was my favourite part because it was fun and they were easy to make... they were yummy!" (Rachel)
