【小学毕业回顾】全新旅程，从这里出发。| FCG PS Graduation Ceremony Review

首先我代表广州斐特思公学热烈祝贺五年级的孩子们顺利完成了小学的学业，即将走向更广阔的天空。

作为FCG的创校学生，你们这一年找到了最好的自己。你们的欢笑、泪水、成功、挫折都与这片美丽的校园紧密的联系在一起。基于FCG的价值观——“家庭、学术、培养、协作、个性和灵感。”

你们在课堂上，勤奋努力、细心聆听，不断汲取知识养分；在体育活动中，你们尽情挥洒汗水，享受运动带来的酣畅。在音乐剧和学校生活的各个领域中，你们学会了与人沟通交流，理解合作的力量。

更重要的是，你们在中西融合的双语寄宿环境中也给其他学生带来了温暖，取得了长足的进步。你们每一个人都在努力按照自己的优势去发展，每一个人都在绽放自己的光彩。

看到你们在学校里的成长，老师和家长们都为你们感到自豪而骄傲。这一年，是你的家长、 你的父母，你的老师，还有你的同学陪伴你们走过，请不要忘记他们的付出。也请借此机会对未来的日子里的人说声谢谢。

在目送你们即将远行的时刻，希望大家拥有辽阔的胸怀，健壮的体魄和纯洁的心灵，去放飞理想，放飞希望。孩子们，勇敢前行吧，准备好迎接中学的新挑战，也要记得以开放的心态去看待这些挑战。

祝福你们。 

Today marks the day that our first Primary School Grade 5 pupils have successfully completed their primary school education.  They are about to embark onto the next stage of the education in Middle School. I congratulate them on their successful completion of primary school and their readiness to move on in their education. At the beginning of the year, I challenged all our pupils that their minds every day should hurt a little bit’.  As Founding pupils at Fettes College coming from different schools around the world, you have risen to that challenge.  You have made great progress in our blended Chinese and international learning environment. 

Well done, you have been studious, enterprising, and helpful, not just in class but also in sport, in musicals and in all areas of school life. You have also brought warmth to other pupils in the boarding house. Seeing you grow and mature in school and in yourselves has been a wonderful experience this year. The qualities that you have shown, and you must continue next year are to be confident, calm, thoughtful and cooperative. Your teachers are very proud for you for that, and I know those at home will have seen this too and also be proud.  

Keep true to the values of FCG—— Family, Academics, Nurture, Collaboration, Personality, and Inspiration. With these in your heart you will do even greater things next year. 

Appreciating what you have given but also what you have received is a one of the great qualities of life.  You have given this year, but you have many people to thank for what they have given to you as well.  Your parents, your teachers, and your schoolmates. Remember please to take the opportunity to say thank you to those people in the days ahead. 

Shortly you will enjoy a summer holiday and then return to join Middle School.  Take courage from the success of your Primary Year here at FCG.  Be ready to embrace the new challenges of Middle School and remember also to look to those with an open mind and heart.

My very best wishes to you all.
