Monks Risborough CE Primary School
Diwali
We celebrated Diwali with a whole day devoted to the Hindu festival of light. The afternoon was devoted to learning a Bhangra dance. Bhangra is a type of traditional folk dance of Punjab, originating in the Sialkot area of Punjab. It is done in the season of harvesting. It was great fun to learn! We even got to learn to dance with a stick called a khunda.
