Halloween is an interesting event here. It's a HUGE deal. They decorated the whole school with pumpkins, skeletons, spiders, and even a haunted house. We had games, trick-or-treating, and even pumpkin carving! It was a big event. Although, it was interesting when I was talking to some of my kids that they don't celebrate Halloween at home or at their elementary schools. I thought that was odd considering what a big deal it seemed. My Korean co-worker told me that they only celebrate Halloween at English schools because its an "English" holiday. I thought that was interesting that its considered an English holiday. We would never have labeled it that way.
Here are some pictures of the day.
