Halloween

Jordan:

Octobre est un mois très excitant à Hong Kong. Au début du mois, tous les supermarchés et les centres commerciaux sont bien décorés avec des décorations terrifiantes. Les décorations typiques sont des citrouilles avec des motifs d'halloween comme des fantômes et des vampires. Chaque année à l'école, le 31 octobre, nous nous déguisons dans nos personnages préférés ou en costume sur le thème de l'Halloween. J'aime halloween parce que c'est une bonne opportunité pour moi de m'exprimer et d'exprimer mes intérêts. Cette année, je vais me déguiser en personnage de jeu vidéo préféré, Mario. Pour moi, ce n'est pas trop important d'être effrayant, c'est plus important de s'amuser.

Our next holidays:All Saints

This holiday, my classmate and I will organise a couple of meetings to work on our schoolwork and big project. This will be a perfect apportunity for us to relax and enjoy ourselves. We will organise beach parties and movie nights.

Other pupils in the class will be going to the beach and study with friends too. Lindsay doesn't want to go out a lot because she prefers to stay at home with her mother and she wants to have time to play with her rabbit too.

At Allsaints in Martinique, there are two days to celebrate the Christian saints and pray for the dead, on November 1st and 2nd. Some of us will celebrate religiously : they'll go to church and the cemetery to light candles at night.

During the next holidays, I will revise for the French exam at the end of the year. Then I'll watch TV, go shopping, go to the seaside, to the movie theater with my friends or my parents. I will also rest, clean the house and reorganise my lessons in my notebooks.

Diwali est voisin donc je vais en parler!

Diwali est voisin donc je vais en parler!

Diwali produit en Inde comme une célébration de lumière, en fait le monde Diwali vient de "deepavali", signifiant "la rangée de lampes." Il est traditionnellement célébré par des Hindous, Jains, des Bouddhistes et des Sikhs, bien qu'au fil des ans il a été incorporé dans beaucoup de cultures différentes dans le monde entier. On le connaît comme le festival de lumières parce que dans les gens de célébration allument(éclairent) beaucoup de petites lampes d'argile appelées "diyas" autour de leurs maisons pour représenter la victoire de bon sur le mal et inviter la bonne chance et la prospérité de la Déesse hindoue Lakshmi et Dieu Ganesh, qui représente la bonne chance, la richesse et l'éclaircissement.

Back to school

The strike

We, the people of Martinique, experienced a strike that lasted seventeen days from September 11th to September 28th. It affected everyone from parents,teachers, especially students. The government decided to lay off many "contrats aidés" employees such as school helps, workers in associations city halls were closed. The strikers also caused slow traffic by protesting.

Hurricanes Irma and Maria

In September we had two strong hurricanes in the region, Irma and Maria. They touched the Caribbean islands, particularly St- Martin, St-Barthelemy, Dominica and Puerto Rico; so now some countries help these islands.
