Banghra with Gurdeep Pandher

Oakville Community Foundation

Gurdeep Pandher is known for posting Banghra dance videos filmed in the beautiful scenery of the Yukon and has created a special video just for Community Classroom!

Bhangra is the traditional dance of Punjab. It is native to the Punjabi nation. A long time ago, Punjabi-Sikh farmers started to use different aspects of farming to create a dance form. This farming-influenced style of dance celebrates food-growing, harvesting and relationship to the land, which they later called Bhangra.

    Community Classroom brings free arts, culture, heritage and environmental programs to students attending Oakville's publicly funded schools through in class visits and field trips.

    Given that the look of the classroom is now very different, the Foundation has shifted its programming to a virtual platform and is available to not only Oakville students, but any student attending a school within the Halton District and Halton Catholic School Boards.

    For any questions, please contact classroom@theocf.org.
