Good morning. I’m very happy to be here today. It is a great honour to be invited to speak to you and to wish you well in the future. On my way to the hall just now, I stopped by some of your classrooms and read the notes you left for one another.
Some of them made me laugh and some almost brought tears to my eyes. All of you have some great memories of this period of your life,and so do I!
Time has gone by quickly. Three years have already passed. You had valuable experiences in the past and you have bright futures ahead of you. I know all of you have your own dreams. Whatever you want to be, you need to work hard to achieve it. And I do think you will.
Listen and read
Sometimes life is not easy. At times it can be very hard. No matter how high you rise, there will be times when you fall down. When this happens, remember this: there is no such thing as true failure. Failure is an opportunity to try something new. Pick yourself up and take a new road. Remember to be brave. Remember to be your best. And always remember that you have your family and friends to support you.
At last, on behalf of all the teachers, I’d like to give our best wishes and congratulations to the graduating class!
