Fun Traditions

This is a picture from the Matric's (Seniors) last day of school. Kingswood has this fun tradition where for an hour the Matrics are let loose in the Jr. School- the boys wearing little girl uniforms and the girls wearing the boys. They go crazy running around giving out kisses on the cheaks to all the kids and staff. They (boys and girls alike) have a bright tube of red lipstick that they reapply and reapply. The Jr. Kids just go haywire- screaming in excitment as these big kids dressed funny chase them around to kiss them. Ms. Aspleings daughter is a Matric, and she landed one on me! It's a site to see at the end of the hour- kids and teacher's faces covered in smooches and bragging about who had more. It was funny to see a heard of Matric boys (keep in mind- wearing tiny little skirts that don't cover much of them!) tackling one of their old male teachers. It was also halirious the day before to see the look on one of the new boy's face when he was told about this tradition- he was terrifed, thinking that these senior girls were going to french kiss him!
