A sample speech
Ladies and gentlemen, I’d like to thank you for your coming to listen to my speech. I feel a bit nervous as I’ve never given a speech before, so please forgive me if it shows.
As we all know, this is the school-leavers’ party, and it’s time to say goodbye to everyone. At this moment, there are many people who I’d like to thank.
The first is my head teacher. I can never pay her back for her kindness, her patience, and gift of knowledge which she has offered me. Sometimes she has been strict with me. I remembered once I made some mistakes in my math homework because of my carelessness. She was angry and let me redo all the exercises. But she has always been fair and she will always be our role model.
The second I’d like to thank are my friends, and what I’ve learnt is the importance of friendship. We’ve worked hard together, we’ve even shared some difficult times together, but we’ve also had a lot of fun. When I met some difficulties in study, they often helped me. We’ll stay in touch.
The school days are the best days of my life. From the bottom of my heart, I thank you all and wish you success for the future.

My speech at the school leavers’ party
Teachers and classmates,
I’m Li Ming from Class 1, Grade 9. I’m a bit nervous but very proud to speak at the school- leavers party.
First, I’d like to thank all our teachers. We have learned a lot from you. You show us your kindness, your patience and rich knowledge. You’ve developed our interests, skills and made us grow up happily. You’ll always be our role models.
Next, I should thank my classmates. We have become good friends. We’ve studied together, helped each other and had a lot of fun. Soon we will go to new schools and we may not see each other so often in the future. But I believe our friendship will last forever.
Wish you all success and good luck in the future.
That’s all. Thank you.
