The morning preschool class at
Diapers and Diplomas enjoyed watching their teacher,
Pam Miller, carve a pumpkin which they later lighted. Votes were taken as to what shape the eyes
and noses should be. The class dressed up in their Halloween costumes
and paraded
through the Grand River Technical School as part of their annual fall celebration.
