The farewell concert
Even though there are still two more weeks in the semester, they will be occupied with review and prep for the final exams. Since our boys aren’t taking those tests, we decided to pull them out early. Tuesday, the day before the Dragon Boat Festival vacation, was their last day at school.
Evan’s school celebrated the end of the semester a bit early yesterday with a concert. Every member of the school’s special music class (20 students), which Evan was a part of, performed their solo instrument.
There were the usual instruments, piano, violin, cello, etc. One student played the xylophone!
Two students played Chinese classical instruments, like the PiPa
Evan played a nice Mozart piece:
Then there was a surprise: Evan’s classmates prepared a special song for him. They sang the pop song “I’m so proud of you.”
It was very touching and moving. At the beginning of the year, we were so worried about Evan. But he had a very good year at his middle school, and the experience will enrich his life.
Awwwww, so sweet!
