Last Day of School!!

Today was the last day of school for the boys ~ we found it quite funny that they finished on the 4th {Independence Day}. There was the Founder's Day celebration along with the prizegiving awards. Christopher received the academic acheivement award and we were very proud of him. He has earned this award every term while at the school here in the UK. He received a nice trophy, which we told the school will be going to the USA with us.
A special thing that is done in our village is that the home country flags of residents is flown on national holidays of their country. So we get to see the American flag flown on the village green at various times throughout the year. Tim and Maggie took time to pose under the flag this morning.
