Back to school . . .

A class of 28 pre-prep four and five year olds at St Gabriel’s Independent Day School for Girls, Newbury, were treated to a lesson about the Bahá’í Faith recently, given to coincide with Naw-Ruz – the Faith’s New Year’s Day.
Myra Erbenova, a member of the Bahá’í Faith in West Berkshire, said: “I talked about Bahá’ís being everywhere in the world and all of them celebrating the Bahá’í New Year on the first day of spring.
“Education is an important aspect of life within the Bahá’í Community and so I was pleased to be invited to St Gabriel’s School. As Bahá’í New Year is a time for gift giving, each child was given a small gift to join in the celebration.”
For more details about the Bahá’í Faith, please call the West Berkshire’s Bahá’í Community on 07964 676461 and leave a message.
