On Thursday, 31 October 2024, a traditional Halloween activity organized by the ÚJOP Centre for foreign students took place at the castle in Poděbrady.
Over twenty pumpkins were waiting for the students on the garden terrace of the castle ready for shaping. Around forty foreigners from many countries engaged in the pumpkin carving. Some arrived in scary costumes, others decorated their faces with themed make-up.
The event started after 4pm and the students got down to the carving work. Some had their carvings thoroughly planned out, others improvised and some stuck to traditional designs. The students had a great time while carving and when their Halloween pumpkins were finished, they had their teachers grade them. Then they waited in the castle's main hall for the evaluation and the winners were awarded a sweet prize.
In the scary Halloween atmosphere, everyone was leaving the competition in a jolly good mood.
