    • YWIES Zhejiang Tongxiang held a grand and warm Annual Graduation and Awards Ceremony on 24 June for Early Childhood Education, Primary and Secondary students. Another year has passed, leaving its imprint of many fond memories and unforgettable moments. This day marked both an end of one phase and the beginning of another. Now, brimming with positive expectations, we look forward to an exciting future. Join our camera crew as they walk you through this fourth annual ceremony.


      At the start of the ceremony, our School Business Manager Ms Julia Xu delivered a speech to the students to send them on their way with blessings.


      One by one, the young graduates received their diplomas from our Co-Principals and Academic Co-ordinator. They graduated! It also means they are about to embark on another exciting learning journey.


      Mr John Muthoni, our Academic Co-ordinator, presented diplomas to the Secondary students who had completed the IGCSE.


      The Ceremony recognised outstanding students as well as those who made significant progress during the academic year. The House Award and Homeroom Award were also presented in the Ceremony. Recognition was also given to those who had completed the IGCSE programme, as this is one of the most important milestones in their academic career path.


      Joy was written across the faces of our awardees. They were perhaps reminiscing about the time shared with classmates, learning and building strong friendships. They have taken important lessons and participated in fun games and the competitions, which have left them happiest memories.


      Mr Spence and Ms Chen delivered speeches, which brought together the principals' love and hopes for the awarded students.


      The students prepared handwritten thank you letters for parents, principals, teachers, and classmates.


      This was a ceremony to honour both personal growth and academic achievements. There were several touching speeches from top students, warm wishes from teachers, and much appreciation from school leaders. It all contributed to the joy and warmth of the occasion.


      One chapter closes but this is also the beginning of a new journey. We believe these children will fly high and far as they explore life with renewed passion.
