Little India field trip yesterday; Halloween today!



This has been a big week!
We had a great time in Little India yesterday. 10 parents joined us to make it a really fabulous day.
Spending $2 each in the bazaar was a highlight for many of the children.
They had to buy one diya (clay lamp), one Deepavali card and one peacock feather.
So many choices!! I think the most difficult part of the day was deciding what to do with the leftover change after completing their shopping tasks! Some children bought themselves a little trinket box, Ruoyan, Amber and Skye bought themselves an apple to eat, Nick & Hannah put their change together to buy a Deepavali decoration for the classroom. Aedan showed that he knows how to bargain because he kept telling the shopkeeper he only had 70c but wanted to buy the $1:50 whistle. Eventually, the shopkeeper caved in and let him have it for 70c!
You can find a lot more photos of the Little India day here
Harmeet's photos have been added here too.


Halloween was fun today too. Thanks to all the parents who worked so hard to make the party a success. You now have very tired, happy, sugar-filled children! I have loaded all my Halloween photos. Have a look for them here

Have a great weekend and enjoy the Trick or Treating.
