At St James as a Faith school it is important to us that we explore different World Faiths. We enjoyed an assembly this morning led by Mrs Scott centered around Diwali. Diwali is the Hindu Festival of Light. For many people this five day festival commemorates the victory of good over evil and Lord Ram and honours Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth. It is celebrated at the end of October. Find out more about Diwali and Hinduism here https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/Diwali
We would like to wish our Hindu brothers and Sisters around the World a very दिवाली की शुभकामनाएँ
