Today is  Gurpurab.


        Harbir is going to the

        Gurudwara for offering a prayer.

        We celebrate Gurpurab to

        remember the ten Sikh Gurus.
        On this festival, holy processions

        are taken out. Langars are held

        where people eat together.



                                                          How beautiful the Christmas

                                                          tree is! Maria has decorated it

                                                          on the eve of  Christmas.

                                                          Christmas is the birthday of

                                                          Jesus Christ. We celebrate

                                                          Christmas on 25 December every
                                                          year. On this day, we decorate a

                                                          beautiful Christmas tree. We go

                                                          to the church to pray.




                                            National Festivals

        We have three national festivals.


          Republic Day (26 January)


          Independence Day (15 August)


          Gandhi Jayanti (2 October)


        They are called national festivals
        because they are celebrated by

        the entire country.
