Welcome Chilean Sisters!

Today we welcomed 8 students and one teacher from our sister school in Santiago, Chile. We were thrilled to see them after their long flight (via Canada - oh my!). Our host students have been waiting for this day for a long time and were super excited to greet their Chilean sisters with a reception (and a really big cake) at St. Ursula's. These first moments together were very special and filled with lots of hugs and chatter about the weeks ahead.    

Today begins a series of very special events which will occur this month. Next we will welcome our Peruvian sisters and then we will enjoy Global Celebration Day with all of our sisters AND our Ugandan friends. This January is a busy, multicultural and very joyful time at Ursuline!!
