"The Swiss School Open to the World" introduces students to festivities, traditions and customs from around the world.
This month, the Parents' Association celebrated Diwali, the festival of colors and lights at Collège Champittet in Nyon. Diwali, also spelled Divali, is one of the main religious festivals of Hinduism, Jainism and Sikhism.
"Diwali was great, we tasted Indian food, did henna painting, danced Bollywood dance and had puppets tell us the story of Diwali" said a 6th student.
Collaboration often leads to innovation – and for three days in May, a group of our Champittet students had the opportunity to experience just that with 200 students from across Europe at the NAE STEAM festival in Prague!
