Graduation!

At the end of February all the girls had end-of-year tests at their schools. For some of the girls this meant that they were wrapping up their education at their level and would continue on to the next level or start working. 5 girls graduated from their respective schools, 1 from university, 2 from high school, and 2 from middle school. We celebrated this as a family by throwing a party and honoring them for their achievements. We are very proud of them. After the summer break they will all take the next step in their lives. One of them will get a job, another one is going to go to university and the rest are going to continue on to high school or go through vocational training.
