Hi Ngeya Rafiki Link Club,
In the last two weeks we have celebrated Halloween and Remembrance Day. On October 31, we celebrate Halloween by dressing up in costumes and going to different houses asking for candy. When we say; "Trick or Treat!" the people in the house should give us candy. We also carve faces into pumpkins and light candles inside of them. Then we display these pumpkins outside our houses when it is night. Halloween is a lot of fun for kids.
On November 11, we celebrated Remembrance Day. That is a day when we remember the Canadian soldiers who have fought and died in wars around the world. It is also a day to think about peace and how we can work to have more peace in our world, and less war. Everyone wears red poppy flowers. We had a special assembly where some classes presented songs and poems. Each class also created wreaths to commemorate the soldiers.
Now that it is November, it is dark and cold here in Toronto. It starts to get dark at 5:00pm now, and doesn't get light until 8:00am in the morning. It has not snowed yet, but it is cold. Today's high was 7 degrees Celsius. What is the weather like in Maai Mahiu?
Our school dance is happening next week. We're looking forward to posting and telling you about it.
