Frights and fun

As Halloween approaches, some of NTU’s Halls of Residence hold their own special events. The Chronicle Photo Desk takes a look at some of these celebrations.

THE FIRST STEP: The dance team from Pioneer Hall performs their routine. “It was both nerve-wrecking and exciting, especially for our freshmen as it was their first time performing,” said dance captain Wong Hui Shan, 21, a second-year student from the School of Humanities and Social Sciences.

For most students staying in Halls of Residence, Halloween will be the last major event for the semester.

With looming project deadlines and final examinations, hall events will soon come to an end to allow residents to concentrate on their academics.

Hall 9 decided to merge their Cultural Night with Halloween this year, adding a spooky and novel dimension to their annual music event.

Several halls also collaborated to throw joint-hall celebrations. The combined resources allowed for more elaborate events this year.

Halls 1, 6, 7, as well as Crescent and Pioneer Halls, decided to team up and organise a Halloween event together, as did Halls 3, 12, 13 and 16.

This allowed residents from different halls to make new friends and enjoy the festive mood.
