'İyiki doğdun' Beril and Ilke :)

Yesterday we organised a surprise birthday party for 2 of our Turkish students, Beril and Ilke, whose birthdays are only a day apart! We decorated the dining hall with Turkish flags, made placemats with common Turkish phrases on and ate lots of Turkish food together. After dinner, three of our exceptionally talented students; Johanne, Ilke and Alvile each played two pieces of music on the piano for us all to enjoy - and for once, all the students were quiet! When the candles on the cakes were lit, we sang Happy Birthday in Turkish and Beril and Ilke thanked us for the party. We hope they both had wonderful birthdays :)
