Japan’s princess Aiko graduated from primary school today (Tuesday).

Aiko is the only child of Crown Prince Naruhito and Crown Princess Masako.

The princess came to school with her parents, and smiled to well-wishers.

At the graduation ceremony, the princess answered in a clear voice when her name was called.

For her graduation essay, Aiko wrote about her swim camp last summer. She said the camp helped her gain confidence and taught her how important it is to never give up.

The princess will go on to Gakushuin Girl’s Junior High school next month.
