Graduation is considered a HUGE deal here but even so, it was a bit of a surprise to us when the program turned out to be such a huge production followed by so much celebration. Really, it was adorable. Each student took their turn at center stage while the schools director introduced them and said what their favorite part of school is, what they want to be when they grow up and what elementary school they were going to for Kindergarten. Cute!
The real surprise was afterward. I had a little heads up from Ku’ulei to get a lei for each of his teachers and another from Bobby the boat driver to get a candy lei for Tanner but did not anticipate the amount of leis and gifts from the other students for Tanner. You would think that after Christmas, Easter, Valentines, etc., I would have learned my lesson…
