Halloween… a night of mischief and

surprise…

Its been more than two weeks since

Commander Nosib’s failed attempt to
overrun the city with his digital
superbugs, and he remains silent.

As the school prepares for its

Halloween festivities, the principal
is concerned that this could be a
significant opportunity for commander
Nosib to strike again.

The school Principal has reminded

students to be aware of people hiding
behind disguises…

Join these students and their teacher

as they test their newly enhanced ICT
skills and stand up for…

The School of Saigon.
