Abby’s Pre-K Graduation
Posted by Rachel
In the fall Abby will be starting Kindergarten. I can’t believe how big she is getting. Sometimes it feels like she was just born and yet she has a 2 year old brother and another one on the way. She is getting to be quite the little lady.
At the beginning of June her school had graduation day for the Pre-K class. All the classes participated in the ceremonies except for the babies. They even had Zach’s class sing a song. Mostly it was the teachers signing with the kids trying to play with all the decorations that were around the stage. It got better as the classes got older.
Abby’s class was the last and wore the graduation caps and gowns. They looked so nice altogether. They sang 2 songs. I am not sure the name of either song, but one was about various fast food restaurants and the other was about Kindergarten here we come and what they learned in Pre-K. Then the teachers handed out diplomas to each child. It was a very nice ceremony.
Afterwards they had cake, cookies, and drinks for the kids. They were also handing out some small gifts, which were very nice. They gave each child a Clifford book about school. Abby’s teacher gave each of her kids, there are 2 Pre-K classes, a small bucket of sidewalk chalk and a lollipop.
Since it was Abby’s day we asked her what she wanted to do after the ceremony to celebrate her graduation and she chose to go to Taco Bell for dinner and play at the play area in the mall.
Congrats to Abby! We love the pictures. She sang the “Kindergarten Here We Come” song for us when we visited her, and Aunt Becky knows the song about the Fast Food places. Looking forward to news of her 1st day at school.
