This year, we held our traditional Pumpkin Day with a brilliant theme – “Movies”! Until late on Thursday evening, members of the student council decorated the school building so that from the morning of Friday 31 October, the school would be full of fun, mystery and mysticism.

Already from the early morning, students were treated to a variety of activities: a fortune teller with tarot cards talked about the near future, while “living maths walls” invited them to solve problems in an unusual form. The students searched for hidden horror stories and candy, solved puzzles, and in the hall during the 2nd, 3rd and 4th half of the day there were different activities – together we read horror stories, danced and took part in a costume contest.

This year’s even more popular than usual costume competition, which consisted of five categories, attracted particular attention:

– The jury’s favourite – the Louvre Robbers, whose costumes and idea impressed everyone.
– Films – The winners in this category were the students who portrayed the characters from the cult film Fight Club.
– The trio of Kiss, Marry and Kill, who wowed the audience with their original performance, took the prize for the cutest costume.
– The most creative costume – the role of Lidia Borisovna, which required courage and great mastery.
– The scariest costume – won by Demogorgon from Stranger Things.The day was a real party atmosphere!
Thank you to all the teachers who decorated their classrooms, participated in the children’s game “Come or Bomb?”. and supported the dress code. Many thanks to the maths section for the themed “living walls” and to the student council for their excellent organisation!
