In fact, it was a “dress-up” day instead of the more conventional “dress-down” day, and the theme was Halloween! The fun began first thing in the morning as witches, ghosts, prison inmates, giraffes, a Sumo wrestler and even a Tyrannosaurus Rex made their way to first class. It was our annual Junior School Halloween spooktacular and, after  a uniquely productive day in the classroom, all students gathered in the Athletic Centre for the “Annual Halloween House Competition”. The parade of costumes was impressive but **Athena Cox, Emily Mei, Qiaoman Tracey** and **Gabby Shaw** caught the attention of the judges, earning first place, dressed as characters from *Alice in Wonderlan*d. **Freek Schep, Emma Schofield** and **Constanza Rubin de Celis Tirado** almost shattered the glass in the entranceway with shrill sounds as they competed in the best scream contest, earning first, second and third place respectively. Laughter echoed throughout the gymnasium as students performed their best death scene; but **Adrian Tse** was victorious earning first place, with **Emily Norton and Taylor Cole** as the “Tinkerbell Team” finishing second and **Emily Mei **and** Sabine Wellard**, third. The most maniacal laugh contest was won by **Jenny Zhang**, with **Papa Ofori** finishing a close second. The fun continued with organized games including a photo scavenger hunt and a pumpkin carving competition that was won by **Ben Roddis**, with the team of **Mitchell Larkin, Kaz Schnitzer **and** Harrison Yale-Klein** finishing second. Grades 7 and 8 students submitted drawings for the Annual Halloween Art Competition and, though there were many impressive entries, the Grade 11 IB Art students awarded first place to **Greyson Corbett-Lumb**, second place to **Sidney Schwartz**, third place to **Jessica Ugwoke** and honourable mention to **Papa Ofori**. At the end of the day, everyone agreed that it was a Halloween party that we would all remember.   Special thanks go to the Grade 9 leadership students who helped with the events, and to **Taylor Cole, Emily Norton **and** Gabby Strickey** for creating Halloween treat bags for every student who took part in the day’s events. *There's always something exciting going on at King's-Edgehill School, it's in the air. You can hear music in the halls, smell healthy meals cooking, see original artwork and performances and feel the energy of students who love to learn. Experience it for yourself!
