Meanwhile, some parents tried hard to win the "Recycling" prize for the most environmentally friendly costume.
In Craig's Dad's opinion, the best costumes were those that combined off-the-shelf look-a-like stuff with individual touches. The little bloke in the following picture had a vest and breeches purchased at a nearby supermarket. But his mum had found a really good looking hat and drew an excellent moustache and goatie to make him look like a real cowboy.
Craig was the last one in class to take to the stage. Other children walked to the front with the simplest of instructions.
But Craig needed to be pushed firmly in the right direction. He's still very shy and doesn't enjoy being the center of attention.
He only took a couple of steps after the first push so the MC had to move forward and push him again.
Eventually Craig moved to the front of the stage. His mask was never pulled down over his face for some unknown reason, maybe next year.
The biggest and most amazing costume was a police car made of four separate pieces. Two side pieces joined together at the front and back. There was a also headpiece and then a huge piece that made up the body of the car that can be seen in the background here. It must have taken hours of effort to make and was only onstage for a few minutes. Amazing!
Unfortunately, bad weather forced the cancellation of trick-or-treating. So, Craig will have to wait for next year.
