Honored guests, teachers, parents, friends, my fellow ABIS learners, a pleasant day to all of us. On behalf of Batch 2021, it is with great pleasure to welcome you in our very first Virtual Closing Exercises.
Let me start by wishing everyone the best of health and safety in these difficult times. I would also like to express my utmost gratitude to all our front liners who are serving selflessly in this global health crisis.
At the start of the school year, we honestly do not know how this year will unfold. This new learning set-up was very new; for us learners, for our parents, and even for our teachers. We had to learn with our teachers not physically being there for us. Our parents, who were preoccupied with the typical family chores, had to face this new challenge of teaching us in our homes. And at times, we had to learn our lessons on our own. These challenges we faced amidst this pandemic only signifies the need for diligence and perseverance on our part. And this moment testifies all our hard work and determination. That in spite all the odds, we survived this school year.
Like all of you, I also miss the usual face-to-face graduation ceremony this year. And we are not alone. Across the world, this pandemic has forced learners to be out of school. For most of us, we are hopeful that this is just temporary. And we will overcome this. This pandemic is only a stumbling block of our journey but we must continue going forward. We will continue our education and follow our dreams.
Our heartfelt appreciation to our parents, guardians and relatives who are celebrating with us in this momentous occasion. Thank you for letting us feel how important we are and for valuing our education. Thank you for guiding us to the extent of your knowledge and capability.
Thank you too, to our teachers at A. Bonifacio Integrated School. What a brilliant, dedicated group of people who put us, their learners, first. Thank you for doing the extra step to contact us and our parents, to help us solve a problem, to accomplish activities in the modules, and to keep in touch and make connections. We hope that you feel how much we care and value your help to us.
To my fellow graduates and completers, we have made it through a school year with challenges and changes that we never could have imagined. We all have learned a lot about ourselves in the past ten months — and those lessons will be important for our future. I hope that we will keep this resilience, flexibility, and willingness as we continue to embark our educational journey in these uncertain times. May we remain committed to continue learning, and be patient in making the very best out of this unexpected and challenging scenario.
Congratulations A. Bonifacio
Integrated School Batch 2021!
Once
again, welcome to this virtual closing ceremony and a blessed day to all of us.
