Easter Celebration

On Tuesday, March 30th the kids had a half day at Ambergris Caye Elementary. This day the students got to have their Easter Celebration. That previous Monday was a teacher workday, and we got to assist in the preparation for the celebration. After working on Excel for grading purposes and speaking with our partnership teacher to discuss the subjects to teach, we started to pack Easter eggs to the brim with sweets, as they call candy here.

It was time for the Easter egg hunt. The students grabbed their baskets, and headed to the lineup at the flagpole. After a quick talk about the rules, Dr. Renee let the students go by grade level to find the eggs. Off the students ran to find their five eggs each. The day was filled with even more sweets after the Easter egg hunt. Each student got a goodie bag of sweets, Ideals (what they call Popsicles), and cheese dip and chips. After the celebration, parents came to pick up their children, and their report cards. It was interesting to observe the parent-teacher interaction and discussing the report cards. It was a great day at Ambergris Caye Elementary, and now it is time for Easter break.
