The children in Year 4 have been discovering India in their geography lessons. As part of their study they have been learning about Hinduism. This has included looking at what Hinduism is and finding out about its origins. Children also found out about different Hindu gods and festivals.
The Year 4 children visited the Hindu temple (Mandir) in Ashton. They had the opportunity to see the statues of the gods they had been learning about. The gods were dressed and decorated in special costumes.
The children also found out further interesting information about Hinduism from Mr Mistry. Before they left the temple they were able to sketch various aspects of the temple and the gods.
