The pupils in year 6 sang a song about diversity called “One Big Family”.
Eid-Al-Adha (festival of Sacrifice), also known as the Greater Eid, is the second most important festival in the Muslim calendar.
The festival remembers the prophet Ibrahim's willingness to sacrifice his son when God ordered him to.
Eid Al Adha is a public holiday in Muslim countries. Today Muslims all over the world who can afford it, sacrifice a sheep (sometimes a goat) as a reminder of Ibrahim's obedience to Allah. They share the meat among family, friends and the poor, who each get a third share.
ARIS pupils and parents presented a drama depicting how the Eid-Al-Adha festival is celebrated around the world.
Eid usually starts with Muslims going to the Mosque for prayers, dressed in their best clothes, and thanking Allah for all the blessings they have received.
It is also a time when they visit family and friends as well as offering presents.
ARIS pupils came to school dressed in their cultural festive clothing. Most Muslims give charity during Eid to be used to help poor people buy new clothes and food so they can also celebrate.
The programme ended with a special thanks from the pupils, to the teachers, parents, and ARIS Team that make their educational needs top priority.
