Year 4 Trip to Guru Nanak Darbar Gurdwara
Sun 26 Jun 2022On Monday, 27th June, Year 4, who have been studying Sikhi this term, visited the Guru Nanak Darbar Gurdwara in Gravesend.
As we arrived, we covered our heads with scarves and removed our shoes as a sign of respect before we began our guided tour.
We toured this amazing building, found out how Sikhs use it and learnt more about Sikhi beliefs and practices
We also had the opportunity to hold a Q&A session to find out more about the gurdwara and the Sikhi way of life. We were invited to the langar (kitchen) where we were offered delicious food which we shared together sitting on the floor to show that we are all equal in God’s eyes.
We would like to thank everyone at the Guru Nanak Darbar Gurdwara for giving us such a warm welcome and for the care they took of us during our visit.
