Year 5 Trip to Neasden Mandir
On Monday 25th November our Year 5 children travelled by coach to the BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir in Neasden, where we were warmly welcomed.
The atmosphere of this beautiful place of worship provided our children with an opportunity to gain a greater appreciation of awe, wonder and spirituality in ways that are impossible within a classroom.
Pupils observed the beautiful decor of the wall carvings and the traditional Indian designs on the colourful carpets.
We also got to observe the Arti Ceremony. It is an ancient Hindu offering made by waving lighted wicks before the sacred images to the accompaniment of a musical prayer. Many visitors have described the experience as awe-inspiring.
