Today was Robert's big day, as he graduated from pre-school. His class put a lot of effort into producing a play for the parents and guests this morning. From the students collecting tickets at the door to an elaborate theatrical set, the stage was set for a wonderful morning.
The class performed The Little Red Rooster. Robert played one of the cats sitting on the porch.
One wall of the classroom was decorated to look like a barn, with the barnyard characters gathered in front.
Following the play, the students were awarded their certificates by the teacher, Ms. Lori.
Ms. Lori and her team put an enormous amount of work into the morning and for that we are sincerely appreciative. She and her team produced a lovely slide show, as well as binders displaying each child's work during the course of the year. Here's Robert with some of his classmates.
And the obligatory poses with mom.
For his special day, Robert asked to go to the toy store and then a playground.
It was a great two days, emotional at times when we reflect on the fact that the kids have been attending this daycare / pre-school program since they were five months old. That's a long time, with many different teachers and students contributing to their development. At the end of summer, they will begin kindergarten and enter the next phase of their lives.
