This half term Y3 are focusing on the key question ‘Would celebrating Diwali at home and in the community bring a sense of belonging to a Hindu child?‘ As a class we have discussed our own ideas and views about what belonging is and this week have continued our learning with finding out what is the story behind Diwali.

After hearing all about Rama, Sita, Hanuman and Ravana’s adventures, Green class worked with a partner to create a story map.Then they used the map to help them keep track of the key events and characters whilst using their puppets to perform and share their understanding of the story.

Ask Green class to tell you the story.
