Last Day of School

Yesterday was Sofia's last day of school. It was a half day and they finished it with an outside assembly that parents were invited to. Ali and I went to see the assembly. Sofia has told us about the weekly assembly before and it always sounds like she has fun so I was excited to see an assembly. They really do have a lot of fun. The end of the year assembly included a little sadness since they had to say goodbye to some classmates but even with this the teachers made it a happy time. Here is a video of Sofia's class singing a song in front of the group.


One of the things I love about Sofia's school is all the singing they do. Sofia is always coming home singing a new song. Of course, she expects me to know the song and sing it with her and I have to explain that she needs to teach me. She doesn't really get that so it was nice for me to hear the songs they sang at assembly so that I can at least be ready to sing those songs. Here is a video of one of the other songs they (the entire primary school) sang during the assembly. Sofia is sitting on her teacher's lap. She was very tired since she had a restless night sleep the night before. She even managed to hit her eye on her bed and has a very small bruise.


Here is another song. It was the final song of the assembly so the children are starting to file out but they all still sing which I think is great. (Pardon the poor camera work.)
