My dear co-graduates, teachers, staff, school administration headed by Ma’am Alma Osia, PTA
officials and board members headed by Mrs. Genalyn Pabelonia, Ladies and Gentlemen. A very pleasant
morning!
Today is a memorable day for all of us because we have just ended an episode in our lives –
elementary school life. Now, we are about to start a new chapter of our journey, the high school.
Jose Rizal once said, “The youth is the hope of the motherland.” We studied in Tibabo
Elementary School, so we could be equipped with adequate knowledge and skills in preparation for
important roles we have to play in society someday. Although we had experience a different modalities of
learning due to Covid 19 Pandemic. We had made it with high hopes and great aspiration towards our
goals in life.
Now, I could simply say that we are empowered and productive student that could face new
challenges towards new horizon. For I believe, that we are now equipped of all the things we need based
from the experiences we had undergone from our Alma Mater.
My dear co-graduates, the first days when we had the printed modular I can say “ang hirap, Pano
to? Hindi ko makakaharap sila ma’am at sir? Tanging si mama, papa, ate, kuya at mga pinsan ko lng
magiging katulong ko sa pag-intindi at sagot sa ating Module.” But despite of these struggles and
challenges we’ve faced. We made it so far beyond what is expected to us. Our teachers and parents are
always there to support us and made us for what we are right now. The patience and dedication each of us
has shown throughout our 6 years in the elementary are those what made us like a hero of today.
Our graduation today is the first of the series of accomplishments that we will surely achieve with
the guidance of our parents and people around us.
Of course, we will not have been able to reach this stage without the people who helped us and
who, without any reservations and expecting nothing in return, guided us in our quest for knowledge. To
them, we owe a lot of gratitude. No amount of words can fully express how much we appreciate what
they have done for us. We just hope that we will be able to compensate for all their sacrifices.
To our dear teachers who taught us not only the lesson in the book but also taught us lessons in
real life, we are most thankful to Sir Joseph Nobleza, our adviser who is very supportive to us; To our
kinder to grade 5 teachers, Ma’am Marcy Sardadillas, Ma’am Crisanta Barizo, Ma’am Christy P. Muella,
Ma’am Cherry Olaguera, Ma’am Francia Bulacan and Sir Jorge Rebanal. We are very thankful to all of
you. No words cannot be compared how much we appreciate your great effort us despite all of this.
Pandemic lang ito, kinaya ninyo at patuloy ninyong kinakaya para sa amin at para sa mga bata ditto sa
aming paaralan.
To our parents, who are always beside us since our first day in school, we share with you our first
taste of victory. There will be more years of struggle. But we are confident that we will triumph because
we have parents like you. We cannot give financial or material thins at this point. We can only give you
the joy, happiness, and respect that you deserve. Thank you for being responsible parents to us. We shall
not be here in this worlds without you. We know the sacrifices you made just to send to send us to school.
To this, we are very grateful. To papa and Mama, I have witnessed your sacrifices and struggles in rearing
me. Thank you very much.
High school life is the first step in our ladder of success. We do not know what will happen next.
But if we have an aim, a goal, it will make our dreams come true. We need to continue studying and let’s
make this a pledge for the new generation.
Let’s make goodbye to our old selves and say “hello” to the new “we”. But always remember: be
Empowered and Productive!
My dear co-graduates, thank you for all the good friendship, brotherhood and camaraderie.
Always remember, we are a Good News! My Fellow Graduates, will you please all stand up?
