The Kindergarten from City and Madingley excitedly boarded a huge coach to go and visit another Kindergarten class at Dame Bradbury’s school. The collaboration event was to learn about how Diwali is celebrated and a host of activities were laid on to delight all the senses. 

There was cardamon scented play dough, spice painting, mehndi hand designs, rangoli patterns to make out of coloured rice and not to mention the sticky coconut ladoo sweets which the children made. A child from the Madingley Kindergarten was proud to show everyone her Diwali dress and told us how she celebrated Diwali with her family. 

It was great to see the children so confident in another setting and the Dame Bradbury’s children and teachers were fantastic hosts.
