Diwali is the famous festival of lights, when families and friends get together to feast and celebrate.
The five day festival begins on Sunday 27th October 2019; each day has its own individual meaning and associated celebration.
The third day of Diwali is regarded as the most important day.
Diwali literally means a ‘row of Lights’. It is a celebration of light! It is a time filled with light and love. The festival does not follow the Gregorian but rather the Hindu calendar known as ‘Tithi,’ which is a lunar calendar.
We would like to wish all our students and staff community who celebrate this festival a very happy Diwali!
