Children are taught the significance of each festival, how it is celebrated in different parts of Bharat (regional differences), method of celebrating it, the specific prasad that is prepared for the festival.
Of these festivals, Makarasankranthi/Pongal and Ganesh Chaturthi, are celebrated as community festivals where the local community also are invited to participate.
Through the Vedic and Cultural Centre of Australia (VCCA), Qld Chapter, we also perform community prayers or pujas like Sri Hayagriva and Ma Saraswathi puja at the beginning of the academic year, Sri Ekadasha Rudram and Sri Lalithaambika puja.
