【卒業式】Adam先生によるTokyo Campus Graduation Ceremony Report
Graduate, shine, and move on to the next chapter
Outside big fluffy snowflakes descended upon us as we gathered inside the warm Nerima auditorium. The seats were filled with proud parents, watching as their children received their diplomas. This is the time when we salute our third-year students as they graduate, shine, and move on to the next chapter of their lives.
外では大きな雪がふわふわと舞い降りるなか、私たちは暖かな練馬の講堂に集まりました。席は子どもたちが卒業証書を受け取るのを見守る保護者の方々で埋め尽くされました。3年生が卒業し、輝きを放ち、人生の次の章へと進んでいくのを祝福するときが来ました。
Hard-working, fun-loving students
During the ceremony we heard beautiful speeches from our students, teachers, and special guests. We also had the privilege of watching a slideshow that was an extensive collection of photos of these hard working, and fun-loving students from first year until now. It was wonderful to see, and reflect on all the opportunities they have had. Our students have many opportunities, to participate in field trips, special events, make new friends, and all kinds of exciting memories.
式では、生徒、教師、特別ゲストによる美しいスピーチを聞くことができました。また、1年生から現在に至るまでの、一生懸命で楽しいことが大好きな生徒たちの写真を集めたオリジナルスライドショーを見ました。生徒たちがこれまで得てきた機会を振り返ることができたのは、素晴らしいことでした。宿泊学習や特別行事に参加したり、新しい友達を作ったり、いろいろなエキサイティングな思い出を作ることができます。
Journey to becoming accomplished adults
It is an honour to teach, work with, and guide these students along their life path. On this day I had students tell me that they appreciated my classes, and valued my lessons. I’m excited to see them move forward, and upward in their journey to becoming accomplished adults.
Inspiration to the younger students
In a graduation, we see awards being delivered to those who worked hard, focused, and pushed beyond. I believe that one of the functions of a ceremony such as this is to inspire the first and second graders. To see, and realise what they can accomplish with a positive attitude, hard work, and tireless study.
