Description

Since our last social of October falls on the 31st - we will be doing a Spooky Social!!

It will be our normal room and normal time, but the vibes will be extra spooky and more chill.

There will be paper crafts, activity pages, colouring books, prepackaged sweeties and sweet treats, chill music and more!

This will be our last social of the GIAG (give it a go) period so will be our last social open to all students - feel free to bring friends along to chill with.

As mentioned on the poster, people are also encouraged to dress up to get in the mood for the holiday - so if you have that one outfit that you haven’t had a chance to try out, a cosplay, a costume or whatever you wanna wear - feel free to use this social as an excuse to look cool asf! Committee will be joining you in this so don’t feel embarrassed :)
