A celebration of Diwali
This year to celebrate Diwali at BestStart Riverbend Rd we were lucky enough to have one of our BestStart relievers spend time in our centre sharing her culture and knowledge with us. We learnt how to wear a sari, make rangoli, and how to make pakora (which were delicious). Our tamariki were curious to learn about Diwali and enjoyed contributing to the fun as they learnt more about this important festival. At BestStart Riverbend we celebrate a mulltitude of cultures throughout the year that have meaning to our centre whanau this ensures tamariki have opportunities to experience an environment where the stories and symbols of their own and other cultures are visible.
