Hannah and Kiernan's last day at OGPS

Friday, June 12th was Hannah and Kiernan's last day at Ocean Grove Primary School. We have a few more weeks in Australia, but have some traveling planned, so it didn't make sense to leave them in school and miss so many days. Both classes threw a farewell party. Both kids have made some really great friends and will miss spending time with their classes in Australia! Here are a few special photo memories. What a neat experience they've had!

Kiernan's party was in the morning, so Lydia and I were able to attend. Lydia was jazzed up about partying!

Each of Kiernan's classmates made him a card and they read them to him!

It was so sweet - I was trying my best not to cry!

Silly faces!

Hannah's party was in the afternoon (right before lunch), so Barry was able to attend. It was also her teacher's birthday, so it was a double celebration! Hannah's class presented her with a huge card signed by everyone. It was so nice!

And then we celebrated school being out for summer (or winter here in Australia)!
