Sailing the Waters of
Hope
WESTERN
EUROPE
Throughout the
school year, our students have experienced the wonders of Western Europe! We've been from Portugal to Germany and from Ireland to Greece, backpacking
over the rivers and through the mountains. We've seen cathedrals and castles and statues and even windmills spinning with the breeze. We went with the
Luck o' the Irish riding in the gondolas, skiing in the Alps, and listening for Big Ben to mark the hour. We enjoyed Swiss chocolates and cheeses and took
a chance in Monaco. We even watched the 2006 Winter Olympics and went to Jolly Old England for a May Day Celebration. We waited anxiously for the
white smoke to pour forth in the Vatican City and cheered jouyously after three days when it finally came with the news that Pope Benedict XVI had
been elected. Adventerous and fun, we had a great time this year, backpacking, riding, sailing, and flying through Western Europe!
Culmination Day
What a wonderful story! Kudos to all who prepared and participated
in our culmination activities. Our invited guests were most impressed with
the displays of all we accomplished and learned during our voyage to Western Europe.
Thank you for representing our school so well through architechture, literature and landmarks!
