Year 5 went on an RE trip to the Hindu Ghanapathy Temple in Wimbledon. The class were shown around the temple by Mrs. Geetha Maheshwaran who introduced us to the many aspects of Hindu life and rituals. The pupils observed the deities and architecture of the temple. Afterwards, Year 5 sat inside the adjoining Sai Mandir to discuss more about the deities, Hinduism, the significance of praying, the temple's history, and the structure and multifaith aspects. Pupils had a chance to answer questions and had the opportunity to dress up in traditional Indian temple clothes.
