I wish we could celebrate with you in person, but I hope this video shows how much we all love and miss
you.
Happy Birthday, Mom. Can't wait to see you.
And just because I can.....

Tierney’s Exhibition: “Disabilities in Tanzania”
She did it! Eight weeks of planning, decisions, researching, interviews, bibliographies, creating, presenting, confusion, and more than a couple of frustrated evenings. She was so poised and confident. We couldn’t possibly be more proud of her.
Exhibition is a mark of the end of the Primary School Program in IB schools. Their unit was titled “Sharing the Planet” – a very broad topic. The P6 class decided that it would be narrowed (slightly) to this Central Idea: The actions of people impact the environment and its inhabitants. Impressive for 11 year olds. Tierney ultimately decided that hers would be “Disabilities in Tanzania”.
This is what T looked like every morning going to school the week before Exhibition
Mr. O’Boyle’s spoke a few words as did the P6 class. It was their night.
Flowers from Ash and Anders. They were also very proud of their big sister.
Grandparents: Tierney’s full evening can be watched here. It includes her oral presentation. Be warned, you’ll need 15+ minutes to watch the full video. Chelsea also created a slideshow of the full 8 week Exhibition Journey: here. It’s worth a watch. Thanks, Chelsea.
From the P6 last blog post about Exhibition:

Right now I feel very proud of my classmates and myself because Exhibition is over, (except most of us still have to do our action for Exhibition).
Next year I want to remember the whole entire process of Exhibition.
My favorite part of Exhibition Day was the end when we all gave flowers and thanks to all the people who helped us throughout all of Exhibition.
Now that I have done the presentation I'm more confident to talk in front of other people.
At the beginning of Exhibition I thought the process was going to be WAY harder than it actually was.
