On Monday, November 19, Riverstone Elementary School students had the opportunity to take part in a Diwali celebration hosted by the Boise Temple. The children saw pictures of India, watched traditional Indian dances, heard the story about Diwail, watched an Indian fashion show, and took part in a group dance and singing session. Each child also received a traditional clay ‘diya’ lamp and a piece of Indian candy.
We were especially proud of our students who wore their traditional dress and spoke about their clothing and traditions in front of the entire Elementary School!
We would like to thank the Boise Temple for helping us to celebrate this colorful festival, along with our Indian parents under the leadership of Sapna K (Siddharth’s mom), and Astha S (Dev’s mom).
