Goal of the Activity

The Pumpkin Carving event was designed to bring international and local students together in a fun and creative environment while celebrating autumn and Halloween traditions. The goal was to enhance cultural exchange, encourage creativity, and strengthen social connections among students.

By carving and decorating pumpkins in small groups, participants engaged in teamwork, shared traditions from their home countries, and enjoyed a relaxed and festive atmosphere with music and good conversation.
