Year Six Party


How is it possible I have a child who has completed elementary school? Didn't she just stop sucking her thumb?
Year 6 marks the last year of Junior School. Katie has actually started SENIOR school. Really?!??!

To mark the special occasion the Year 6 parent representatives and the teachers planned and manned a celebratory party in their honor. We'd wanted to host it outside of the school, but cost, time and logistics forced our hand. However, with the help of the school's catering services, a financial boost from the Headmaster, and some dedicated moms, a great party took place in the cafeteria after school.
The kids were allowed to bring a change of clothes and the girls even put on a bit of make-up. The teachers had put together a slide show and a song list that played throughout the party.
I couldn't stay for the entire party as Sarah was at a birthday party at a friend's house and poor Syd was stuck out in the hall waiting for me. There were a few other younger siblings in the same boat so she wasn't

complaining...too often.
Katie said everyone had a great time and she was sad to see the end of the year come. She said it was the best year of her life.
I think I might be inclined to agree with her.
