Honoring Monarchs and the first day of spring

March 22
These are photos of our final event for the Monarch Butterflies. For decades, children from our school, Colegio Corregidora, have participated in this event. Today we named the new King and Queen for 2009, who rendered honor and farewell to the Monarch Butterflies and invited her to come back next year. At the same time they welcome the spring season.
The newly crowned couple sit in the center. The leaving Queen and King sit at the right of the newly crowned couple, and the Princess and Prince sit to their left. Children dance to different kinds of music, another tradition our children have had for decades. I hope you enjoy these photo as much as I enjoyed being there a few minutes ago.
