This RE Diwali activity sheet year 6 supported is perfectly aligned with the Australian Curriculum (ACARA), which encourages children to reflect on religious festivals and understand the significance of light over darkness.

The worksheet includes four straightforward questions with dedicated answer frames, helping students build confidence in their written responses. We have included a helpful word bank at the bottom of the page to support spelling and vocabulary retention, making this the ideal RE Diwali activity sheet year 6 supported for SEN or emerging learners who benefit from visual cues and simplified instructions.
