We are talking to you because we want you to understand how we celebrate Halloween in our school. It's in Zaragoza. I think there are many differences between your school and ours.
In Spain Halloween it’s getting popularity each year.
We haven’t ever celebrated Halloween at our school but, three years ago, the youngest (between 3 and 12 years) began to celebrate it.
Kids between three and six years bring a pumpkin to the school. They put it in the middle of the building, and they decorate it and dress it up. This activity takes a whole week, along the week they learn this party´s origin, and do some handcrafts. They don't dress up at school they do it at their houses.
The children between seven and twelve years celebrate the party on Friday that week. This activity is organized by the English teachers of the different courses. They decorate the class with things that they take from home.
This is Diego´s opinion, a nine years old student:
"This year we made some pictures of Halloween at English class. We did a witch cap too and a play with our own caps. We went out to the play-ground and we frightened the smallest. My class was decorated with pumpkins, ghosts, bats, vampires... We had to write a scary history for a tale contest. The teachers post the best history in our class web.
We had a lot of fun but we would have prefer to have more activities but we can´t complain because three years ago they didn´t do nothing.
In October 31st we went after school to Juan's house (my friend) and we went around the neighbourhood asking for sweets.
¡I love halloween!!!!!!!!!!
