At this special moment, the graduation ceremony for the 2024 senior high school students of Lin-gang Yaohua was held with great splendor in the school auditorium, paying tribute to the youthful years we have spent together, expressing gratitude to parents and teachers for their cultivation, and also offering the best wishes for each other's future.

 

Donation Ceremony Site

Before the prelude of the ceremony, we witnessed a donation ceremony of great significance together —— the graduate Terry donated a crape myrtle tree that carries 27 years of spring and autumn to his alma mater. His eyes were shining with light, and his words were full of endless attachment and deep love for his alma mater.

 

Graduation Ceremony Site

In a warm and heartwarming atmosphere, students and teachers carefully helped each other to tidy up the solemn graduation gowns. The collar was gently smoothed, and the hem was carefully straightened. Every subtle movement contains care for each other. This friendship, like a gentle stream, will also accompany them out of the campus and become one of the most precious treasures in their life journey.

 

At nine o'clock in the morning, the younger students and teachers held the growth album of the graduates and sent the most sincere blessings to the senior students with warm applause and cheers. The graduates passed through the main teaching building that carries countless memories one after another and arrived at the main venue, where the school had prepared a graduation gift carefully for the 2024 students —— each one contains a good wish and deep expectation for the future of the students.

 

Leaders of the school, parents, and teachers gathered together, and the ceremony was presided over by the beloved A Level program coordinator. With the majestic and passionate national anthem and the melodious and pleasant school song, the graduation ceremony officially began.

 

Dr Betty Chan Po-king sent blessings and congratulations to the graduates through a video from a distance. Faced with the ever-changing world development, Dr. Chen Baoqiong is full of confidence in the students. In addition to the school's support for students in all aspects, the future education department will help students to have a broader range of new technologies, explore the frontiers of knowledge, and cooperate with peers and experts from different backgrounds.

The two principals — the foreign principal and the Chinese principal — extended the warmest congratulations and the most affectionate messages to the graduates who are about to embark on a new journey.

 

Over the years of campus life, the efforts and persistence of the 2024 students have bloomed brilliantly in this season. They expressed their gratitude to the parents, teachers, and students who have accompanied them all the way with a series of awards. In the announcement by the head of the Chinese middle school, the head of the foreign middle school, the career and college counseling coordinator, and the career and college guidance teachers, the students received the certificate symbolizing honor from the school leaders — Student of the Year, Double Principals' Honor, Athlete of the Year, Career and College Counseling Honor, and the best performance and the most progress awards in each subject. May these honors also inspire them to continue to pursue excellence and climb to greater heights in the future.

 

After years of hard work, the students of 2024 have continuously honed themselves, climbed to greater heights, and achieved self-transcendence again and again. The foreign principal and the Chinese principal awarded the graduation certificates symbolizing academic achievement and growth transformation to all the graduates and carried out a solemn tassel turning ceremony. This is not only an affirmation and commendation of the students' hard work, but also a grand declaration of their departure from the campus and the start of a new chapter in life.

 

On the scene, the school also planned a small surprise — a carefully made campus photo video, which delicately outlines the growth trajectory and gorgeous transformation of everyone from childhood to graduation. This is not only a beautiful memory of their campus life but also a deep blessing for their new journey. May they continue to shine in the future with this precious memory and strength.

 

Many of the graduates' teachers, although they could not personally attend this solemn and warm ceremony for various reasons, have crossed the boundaries of time and space, and sent their deep affection and sincere expectations through a series of carefully recorded warm blessing videos, allowing every graduate present to deeply feel the warmth and touch from the depths of their hearts.

 

In the growth process of the students, parents have created a pair of invisible wings for them with a love as heavy as a mountain and a mind as broad as the sea, leading Yaohua students to fly over difficulties. At this unforgettable moment, the representative of the graduate parents also sent sincere expectations to the graduates.

 

The two graduate representatives expressed their indescribable attachment and reluctance to their alma mater in a speech full of deep feelings.

 

As the ceremony is coming to an end, the talented graduates used a carefully adapted "Qi Li Xiang" as a prelude and performed a unique song medley together.

 

At the end of the ceremony, the Chinese vice principal delivered a heartfelt speech, full of sincere expectations and reluctance to the graduates. Principal Zhou slowly unfolded his words, like a vivid picture scroll, presenting the students' experiences on campus one by one, as if the footprints of growth were just yesterday, vividly remembered. When the words fell, the audience burst into warm applause and cheers. At this moment, all the graduates felt the deep care and blessings from their alma mater, and this strength will accompany them to a better tomorrow.

 

The ceremony came to a successful conclusion, and the graduates had lunch with their families and teachers. Everyone sat together, laughing and talking, with a warm atmosphere. At this moment of parting, everyone raised their glasses to remember this unforgettable period together. No matter where they go in the future, YWIES students will never forget the care and teachings given by their alma mater, and they will move forward with the "home" taste of their alma mater, writing their own wonderful chapters on the road of life.
