Let the Summer Begin!

The kids wrapped up their school year on Friday. I love seeing the comparison between the first day and the last day. I just wish I could get them to look like they actually enjoy going to school (which they do).
It is hard to believe that Colin will be in Grade 1 next year. I can't wait to see him in his uniform!

First Day of School September 2010

Last Day of School June 2011


Colin also finished his swimming lesson for the past semester. They city has criteria on which they test and award children for their swimming achievements. Colin passed his 25 meter swim this session and received a certificate and a patch. He can swim further, but refused to jump into the pool, which is part of the next round. We will have to work on it over the summer.

 
It ends up being a busy time with a lot going on. It was Beer Passion weekend here in Antwerp, which is always a good time. The parent and child group we are a part of also hosted a summer picnic in the park.
 
I also just finished up the second session of my Dutch lessons. My exam was Thursday and I will find out my score today. I need to pass it in order to move onto the next level, which starts in September.
I will hopefully follow up shortly with a post about our trip to Italy in the beginning of the month.
