Auburn Early Learning Centre Holi Celebrations

Last Thursday, the Auburn Early Learning Centre celebrated Holi.

​​​​​​​Holi is a Hindu festival that celebrates spring, love, and new life.

Some families hold religious ceremonies, but for many Holi is more a time for fun. It’s a colourful festival, with dancing, singing and throwing of powder paint and coloured water.

Holi is also known as the “festival of colours”.

For the children at Auburn, it was a day filled with colour where they created a beautiful brightly coloured piece of artwork. They approached culture with humility, respect and curiosity.

The team and kids then all enjoyed a delicious Indian lunch with roti that was made by the children.

WHAT WE SEE
