"Thank you for coming in to our school and doing the Hindu workshop. I liked getting dressed up as the demigod Ganesh and learning all about him. It was good when the girls dressed up as goddesses and got bindis on their forehead. It was amazing. In fact everything you did was amazing. I hope you come back to our school again. Thank you for everything."
James, Nethermill Primary School, Dumfries
Thomas in Year 5 said: "I had a really good experience because we were told all about Sikhs and what they would wear and what everything represented. I really hope that we will do another workshop like it again soon. I learned so much and want to learn more!"
Whilst Jake, also in Year 5, commented: "I really enjoyed seeing people getting dressed up, but most of all I enjoyed learning about the Sikh religion. I learned that Sikhs don’t cut their hair and that you will always be invited to share their meals if you visit a Sikh temple, which is called a Gurdwara." St George's CofE Primary School, Weybridge:
