Amy Cojocar, director of Roots School, co-ordinated a Halloween-themed party and Roots students organized it. The “Halloween Hustle” took place on Saturday at St. Andrew’s Church and attracted kids from pre-kindergarten to Grade 8.
All the children who attended came dressed in Halloween costumes. There was food and refreshments, with all of the delicious treats prepared by the students at Roots school.
There was haunting singing and costume contests with Louie, a pre-kindergarten boy, winning first prize in the costume contest.
Roots School is an independent school and teaches pre-kindergarten to Grade 8 students. The students at the school are taught with hands-on projects and nature-based experiences which is the provincial curriculum. Students are exploring graphic design, and in the English curriculum by writing and designing advertisements.
They also engaged in creating Halloween computer games, particularly for this themed event.
