Trick or treat

There is a Halloween sub-culture in Namibia. It's a holiday that most people know about, and a few celebrate the "American holiday."

Kelly convinced me to come along with her to the Future Professor Pre-Primary (preschool) where she's been working. Teacher Suzy was beside herself when Kelly told her that I taught at Polytechnic. "Students," she whispered. "You are Future Professors, and here we have a real professor!" Hmmm...debatable.

Kelly worked with the kids on their ABC's, and then it was time to have some Halloween fun. Kelly had brought stick-on mustaches for everyone, as well as some masks. The kids just had a blast. They started calling each other "Grandma" and "Grandpa" because of the mustaches.






Happy Halloween from Namibia!
