Welcome Speech For Graduation Ceremony.docx

Welcome Speech for Graduation Ceremony To our ever supportive and honorable DepEd representatives, to our inventive and resourceful staffs of Bacong Central School, teachers, spectators, friends, ladies and gentlemen, my fellow graduands, a warm and productive morning to all. We gathered here today to celebrate and validate the graduation ceremony of batch 2018. I am Jazmaine Nicolle Cabigon, class first honorable mention, and I am honored to have the opportunity to speak today. First of all, on behalf of the entire batch of 2018, I would like to welcome you to the graduation ceremony of batch 2018 at Bacong Central School. I also want to thank to all parents, family and friends for their love and constant support, as well to the members of Bacong Central School faculty and staff for their guidance and patience; we truly owe you all that we are. Elementary school has been an unforgettable journey that has prepared us for the future, whatever it may hold. These past Six years have involved some of the most memorable and influential moments of our lives. Individually, our experiences here are unique, but together we share a common bond as members of the batch 2018 and soon to be the graduates of Bacong Central School. I am filled with excitement and anticipation as the next stage in our life is about to begin but without the supports of our parents or guardian and our teachers, we may not have made it to this day. They have been there for us since the beginning, guiding us, helping us, and watching us grow. They have witnessed us mature into responsible young adult. As we marched out into the broader world and cast away our toga as meaningful memories, we must realize then that our graduation day is not the end, but a new beginning. And as we come to accept this, we are presented with new choices and thousands of possibilities of what we can become sometime in the future. And although most of us are already brainstorming for all the pleasant things and big things that we can achieve in our future times, let us pause for a few moments and savor this moment. Pause a little and think back through all the times and all the things that became a catalyst to transform us into who we are now. Let us give time to pat ourselves in the back for the work well done, for the efforts of making it far into this stage of learning. (palihog tapik sa likod sa imong mga tapad, ingna GOOD JOB!). So fellow graduating students, as we proceed into our graduation rites this day, I can only say good luck to all of us and thank you for all the people who helped us reach this level, especially our parents, teachers, relatives and friends. So once again, good luck, good luck, good luck and congratulations!
