Halloween 2010 


 On the last Friday of October, level 1 to 4 students adopted the traditionally
 American festival Halloween and created their own Halloween Party. Wondering 
around the hallways of Bacui international section on this special day were 
angels adorning tiaras, witches and warlocks in shimmering pointy hats, 
princesses wearing beautiful dresses, pirates with their eye patch, 
a policemen and even a Bright yellow tweety bird! Students first changed 
into their Halloween Costumes and then rotated through three different 
activities. First was Pumpkin Golf (thanks to one of our international 
teachers who lovingly carved from real pumpkins). Students were given a
 broomstick and a ping pong ball and they had to hit the ping pong ball 
into the mouth of the pumpkin. It is not as easy as it sounds, as virtually
 no one succeeded! Students then went onto the pi?atas (filled with delicious 
lollies) and lastly had a storytelling and a mask painting activity! 
 Students also participated in a treasure hunt which involved pace and wit. 
Students were split up into teams and they had to locate the hidden 
treasure through answering various clues, such as ‘This is a good place to 
have some quiet reading’. These clues took them all around the school, to
 different rooms, up and down stairs looking for that final elusive treasure.
 When the treasure was found, the students split the treats with their 
classmates. The finale was the intense balloon popping game! It 
involved 100 balloons and lots of running! Two balloons were tied to each 
of the student’s legs, and when the music started the students had to try
 and not only pop the balloons tied on their teammate’s legs, but at the 
same time protect their own. It involved lots of squealing and laughter. 
The day ended with a loud bang! 
Thank you to all the hard work that the teachers put in (in particularl
y blowing up the balloons, carving the pumpkins, organizing the treats 
and carving the pumpkins) to organise this event and for the parents
 who prepared the costumes for the special day. 
Trick or Treat! Happy Halloween!
