          THE SINHALA NEW YEAR

The Sinhala new year is the most enjoyable festival for al Sinhala Buddhists. They celebrate this festival on the 14th of april every year.

The farmers harvest their fields and store grain for the coming celebrations. Wwhitewash our houses and polish the floors. Wbegain to prepare oil cakes and sweetmeats.

On this day people spend the time visiting the temples. They put on new clothes. The children light fire crackers. The new year day is spent joyfully by all and we hope the next new year will still be a happier one.
