Moved in the new school.

Hello Everyone!

At this point classes and life at the new school are well underway and commencing with many new topics regarding labeling the school (shelves, markers, glue, etc) and the completion of the kids' About ME Books. The house blessing occurred on April 22nd, the day the astrologer chose as the best day for an auspicious opening. The monks arrived early in the morning and the blessing began at 9:49 precisely. The event was exceptional to watch and Nong, one of the students, prepared an amazing feast of green curry as an offering. Many good friends came to join in the festivities and brought many Thai delicacies and a brand new fan for the school! A much warranted gift in the ceaseless heat of mid-April. The morning streamed into late afternoon with the commencing of the Open house for FH families, teachers, students, brothers and sisters, friends, and neighbors who all joined in celebration of the new school. The evening was great fun for all involved and many of the students entertained the crowd with exceptional karaoke performances. The overwhelming sentiment of the event showed immense support from everyone involved and demonstrated the love that permeates through the relationships at FH and can only bring great prospects for the coming months.
