Pacific American School in Hsinchu, Taiwan (亞太美國學校) - American based international school in Hsinchu, Taiwan

Boo! Happy Halloween! This year’s Halloween festivity was held on October 31, 2008 right in our PAS floor. Students came to school with their costumes on that day. The cameras never stopped clicking and flashing for the entire day. Most of the students could not concentrate much on their morning classes as they were expecting for the afternoon event.

Camping was a complete success. The only difficulty was it rained a lot every day on Yang Ming Shan. All of us had to wear raincoat most of time, and our clothes and shoes were always wet. It’s touching that all students did their best to accomplish all activities and tasks under rain.

Grade 1 and Grade 2 classes went on an exciting field trip to the Hsinchu Zoo on Thursday, October 9.
