Rosarian Students Provide ÔSpooktacular’ Halloween Cheer for Children at The LordÕs Place and Palm Beach ChildrenÕs Hospital

When October 1st arrives, most Rosarian Academy children become elated to unbox their spooky decorations, decide on a costume, carve jack-o-lanterns, and prepare for a candy-filled Halloween night at the end of the month. The students at Rosarian also recognize the unfortunate reality that not all of the children in our community have the opportunity to celebrate fun holidays like Halloween due to circumstances out of their control. As a solution, students provided Halloween cheer for children at The LordÕs Place and Palm Beach ChildrenÕs Hospital. 

On Wednesday, October 28, 2015, 35 middle school students from Rosarian Academy participated in the 4th Annual Pumpkin Carving Party at The Lord’s Place Fily Cpus. The Rosarian students paired up with children who are currently housed by The LordÕs Place to carve pumpkins, paint faces, make Halloween crafts, and share stories and have fun together.

This year, some Rosarian Lower School students also spread Ôspooktacular’ fun to the children at Palm Beach ChildrenÕs Hospital. Each second-grade student decorated two Halloween bags and filled them with items such as puzzles and coloring books. Through the Alliance for Kids, the bags were distributed to the children staying at the hospital.
