Canadian International School celebrates Halloween with fun and fervour
Bangalore : Halloween, a global festival, was celebrated with much fun and fanfare by students belonging to over 40 nationalities at the Canadian International School. The grand celebration saw students, parents, and teachers dressed up in various costumes to celebrate the spirit of Halloween. There were plenty of fun games organized by the School Community Association (SCA) and the entire school was decked up with Halloween-themed decorations. The students came dressed as devils, witches, angels & fairies to mark the welcoming of good spirits and driving away of the bad spirits in their lives.
The event was organised to help students pursue education in a fun-filled manner and encourage them to appreciate differences in cultures and customs and also to make them aware of global festivals & values. For many others it was a mind-blowing experience that took them to the western world, where it is celebrated in a grand manner.
Students also danced on the tunes of foot tapping numbers by Mr. Sandeep Boniface, Music Teacher at CIS and enjoyed the day thoroughly. There was also a Halloween parade and students got to go Trick or Treating and show off their costumes.
