The “Boo-tiful Monster Jaguars” Halloween Festival combined Western cultural experiences and games with activities themed around the harvest season. This unique combination helped students understand the significance of this Western holiday, while also learning the importance of appreciating food and celebrating the harvest season as winter approaches.
October ended with countless memorable moments. The diverse activities and events of the previous month brought not only moments of entertainment but also valuable learning experiences. These experiences will help the Jaguars be well-prepared for the important exams coming up in November.
