During the Upper Primary assembly, 3SG and 3HA students shared what they have learnt about Hari Raya Haji. They visited mosques around Singapore and learnt that a mosque is a place of worship for Muslims. Also, the students learnt what a pilgrimage is and why Hari Raya is a special time for Muslims to visit Mecca. They created a picture of a mosque at night using water colours, crayons and the silhouette of a mosque. Additionally, the students interviewed some school staff and found out that part of the celebration is to have a feast with their family. 3SG and 3HA had a fruit feast and shared lots of different fruits.
