A Royal Affair

Last week at Project Transformation, international week was a hit! I think our kids really enjoyed all of the activities. They did so many things -- they went on a virtual gondola ride when we studied Italy and got to make some garlic bread. When we studied Egypt, they learned about mummies and made their own headdresses. When we studied Japan they made their own watercolors, learned how to write some words in Japanese, learned about Japanese table etiquette and ate some peanut butter and jelly "sushi," and they also made origami. Then, on Thursday, the buzz was all about the Royal Wedding! The kids were so excited and so many of them came dressed up for the affair, or brought dresses and suits to wear! Throughout the week, the girls worked on fascinators during recess and the boys made bow ties. Thursday brought all of their efforts and excitement together. Some of the elementary girls and boys were flower girls and ring bearers and some of the youth were bridesmaids, groomsmen and ushers. PT staff and alumni even dropped by for awhile. We had so much fun! Check out the pictures from Elmwood's royal affair this past week and enjoy! *Please know I wish I could include pictures of the kids -- but due to safety and PT policy I cannot. But, trust me, they were adorable!*
