Today, we went to Sri Guru Singh Sabha Gurdwara, Derby to celebrate Guru Nanak Dev Ji's Gurpurab! The whole school spent the morning at the Gurdwara Sahib, listening to Kirtan, having langar, learning about Guru Ji and doing some seva. Once we came back to school, we had a special lunch and spent the afternoon learning more about the wonderful life of Guru Nanak Dev Ji. We have had a great day! Happy Gurpurab!
