Happy Halloween To Everyone!!!
It was a festive couple of weeks full of witchy tales with ghouls and goblins, baking, carving of pumpkins and of course a very special visitor, Katie the witch.

Our baking skills have advanced to pie and tart making. Here the children are hard at work creating their culinary masterpieces, “Pumpkin Pie” and “Pumpkin Tarts” with fresh pumpkin. They look like they are having so much fun. We baked a special pumpkin pie for our friend Katie the witch in hopes she would stop off and visit us at school for our party.

The children did such an excellent job carving their pumpkins. It’s amazing how they are able accomplish such a difficult task. These Jack O Lanterns turned out ghoulishly fantastic.

The children also finished up their jack o lantern faces to hang in the windows and scare the goblins away.

We were very happy to arrive at school on Friday and see Katie the witch’s shoes and broom outside the classroom!
Our pumpkin party was magical and fun, with Katie the witch telling stories about her beginning days as a young witch and learning how to make magic.
She also told us a delightful story about how she met her kitty, Shadow. We made witches brew together and sang songs. In parting, Katie the Witch shared goodie bags with each child that the Pumpkin King asked her to give to each child.
