After initially getting rain delayed, the Centre got to experience the colour and fun of Holi Festival this week. It is a major festival in the Hindu religion. It is celebrated on the day after the last full moon of the Hindu month of Phalguna. which falls between late February and early March in Western calendars. Holi usually marks the happy transition from harsh, dark winter to brighter, warmer springtime. As it was a grey day in Adelaide it seemed perfect for the children to decorate the Centre and themselves with colour. The pictures barely capture the fun the children had running around and watching their bright white shirts transformed by the powder paint.
