Recently, I was invited by my children’s school to make a short video clip on their Multi Faith school trip. We are hoping to use the brief introduction video to show parents what the trip is about and to educate children who will be going in the near future.
Before we headed off, we had to make sure that all the children’s clothing was appropriate and the girls had a scarf and the boys had a hat/cap. If girls were wearing dresses with socks, they were asked to wear trousers with it. It is important to observe the dress code when you are visiting a temple. We had quite a few children who didn’t wear the appropriate clothing so hopefully this video will help others in future!
After the helpers were assigned to their group of children, we all hopped on the coach and promptly set off. The first place we went to was the Guru Arjan Dev Gurdwara (Sikh) in Derby. Our coach was parked outside the temple’s bus stop. Before we entered the temple, the children were lined up into groups of girls and boys. The group of girl were ushered to the left hand side of the temple while the groups of boys went to the right. Everyone had to cover their heads with a scarf or hat, remove their shoes and wash their hands before entering the prayer room.
