October 31st
What
is
Hallowe'en
actually
a celebration of?
Hallowe'en,
the time of pumpkins, candies, ghosts, witches and much more, is
annually celebrated on 31st October.
That's the night before All Saints Day.
Its origins date
back thousands of years to the Celtic festival of Samhaim or The
Feast of the Sun, a most significant holiday of the Celtic year. This
day marked the end of summer but also the season of darkness as well
as the beginning of the New Year on 1st November.
Here's a Halloween exercise. Have fun!
