Halloween 2018


The end of October traditionally is the time of the year when everybody is crazy about Halloween. The same was in GYE.  Volunteers decided to organize small party for youngsters dedicated to this holiday. But before it happened, it was necessary to turn GYE office more into Halloween mood by making some decorations. Volunteers prepared some garlands with pumpkins, spiders’ nets and toilet paper with artificial blood. We also decorated the doors to the office and prepared some food – small bruschetta, crackers’ sandwiches, pumpkin cake and drinks: sangria, mojito and some soda. We prepared some games to make that night more active – chasing the balloons, guessing items, eating apples. Later youngsters organized some dance activities for themselves everyone had fun and event was a great success!



First of all, I really like the idea to organize a Halloween party in G.Y.E where volunteers and youngsters were together to prepare and celebrate this event (video). Youngsters had a lot of funny costumes during this night, some games were organized. It was a great moment so thank you to Nana for this event in G.Y.E. - Matthieu




“We start prepare Halloween two weeks before. We have meeting and talk about what we want to do. It was obvious that we want have a lot of decorations and good food. For first, we prepare some spider’s web on the wall, small pumpkins and light. Two days before our preparations was more intensive. We did garlands with spider webs, pumpkins, and we decorated doors. In Halloween day we made food. We went on market and start preparation in early afternoon. For party, we prepare a lot small sandwiches. Fruits, drinks and of course pumpkin pie.” - Marta

31st of October – everyone knows this date. Of course it’s Halloween. Almost all over the world people are cutting out pumpkins, dressing up funny or scary costumes and children are walking around the neighbourhood with famous trick or treat. GYE also was celebrating this day. Couple days before, we decorated the office with topical arts and crafts. The Halloween party had place, of course, on Wednesday evening. Wearing amazing costumes, we lighted up the curved pumpkins and began the party. - Karola
