The graduation ceremony was a moment for the children to showcase themselves and an opportunity to express gratitude towards their teachers and parents. The children paid their utmost respect and bowed to their teachers, expressing appreciation for their guidance, support, and selfless dedication throughout their learning journey. They then turned to the audience which consisted of their parents and various school staff and expressed their heartfelt gratitude.

This showcased the children's creativity and passion for the performing arts.
