Last Friday, St. Paul American School Hanoi transformed into a Halloween wonderland filled with laughter, creativity, and school spirit! The Halloween Carnival 2025 brought together our students, teachers, and parent community for a day of spooky fun and unforgettable memories.
From imaginative costumes and spooky decorations designed by our wonderful parent community, to exciting games and activities across campus, everyone embraced the Halloween spirit with full energy, even the rain couldn’t stop the fun!
Students, parents, and teachers showcased their most spooktacular outfits, turning classrooms and hallways into a lively parade of ghosts, witches, superheroes, and more all while raising funds to support our music program, student councils, as well as athletics and clubs.
CARNIVAL GAMES
The carnival screamed with excitement, laughter, and colorful costumes. The event featured a wide variety of attractions and activities designed for every age, whether you were brave enough to enter the Haunted House, wanted to test your aim at the Sponge Toss Boards, or preferred showing off your artistic side with Pumpkin and Rock Painting.
Students, families, and teachers stopped by for Face Painting, snapped silly photos at the Photo Booth, and enjoyed delicious treats from our refreshments table.
The Carnival Games Zone kept the energy high with a mix of classic and creative challenges: Danger Zone, Crazy Eyes, Halloween Roulette, Poke A Pumpkin, and the hilarious Mummy Challenge. Favorites like Musical Chairs, Pumpkin Sweep, and Tape A Teacher To The Wall drew big crowds and lots of laughs. For those with a competitive streak, games like Halloween Ring Toss, Vertical Toss, Blood Sucking Ducks, and the Pumpkin Pail Trick or Treat kept the fun going all afternoon.
Throughout the event, families and friends had loads of fun. Thanks to everyone’s enthusiasm and participation, the funds raised will help enhance our school programs and support a wide range of student activities throughout the year.
COSTUME CONTEST
The day also included a Costume Contest, where everyone—from a pack of Crayola crayons to a capybara—had the chance to show off their most creative looks and win prizes.
The Halloween Carnival celebrated what makes the St. Paul community special: creativity, teamwork, and a shared dedication to making every school event super fun.
A huge thank you to STUCO, the Event Committee, and all the school clubs who worked tirelessly to make this year’s Halloween Carnival a thrilling success. 💙🕸️
