Spring Garden Update

We have been very busy in our new garden. We have planted beans, spinach, strawberries, tomatoes, corn, lettuce and marigolds to keep the insects away. If you have time, come down to
A4 and have a closer look.

Saal Mubarak

Diwali is the Indian Festival of Lights that marks the beginning of the Indian new year. To celebrate Diwali, we created rangoli patterns and made coconut barfi.

Rani was very excited about Diwali. Here she is talking about her experience.
