Answer:
Respected Principal, Respected Teachers and my Dear Students – First of all, I would like to thank you everyone for gathering here to celebrate our farewell! I am highly honored for having been given the opportunity of delivering the farewell speech today.
The thought that this is our last day at the school makes me emotional as well as nervous. We have spent some of the best moments at this school and have learnt a lot of things here along with off course acquiring bookish knowledge.
While we are really sad that we will be leaving the school post this day, we are also happy; in fact the entire school is happy that each student of our class has passed with good marks. Our school has good reputation and image in the world of academics and I am glad that we have lived up to that image. While off course, we did a lot of hard work to achieve such grades and marks, our teachers had been very supportive and motivating. They helped each one of us with the projects, assignments and other coursework whenever needed.
I would also like to thank our Principal Sir who always believed in us. He would provide us with extra study material and allow us to stay in the library even after working hours for studying and completing the course.
He is the true example of a disciplined yet kind personality. Along with motivating students for achieving high grades in the exams, he has also promoted various extracurricular activities such as dance, music, sports, painting, art & craft and many. Though our school did conduct sports week every year but because of our Principal Sir, our school could participate at the state and national level too. Thank you Sir, you really taught us that career can be made in other fields too as well as you taught that by making sports an integral part of our life, we can stay fit and agile.
Under the guidance of our respected Principal Sir, our school also made visits to several charity organizations such as orphanage, old-age homes, etc. This has been favorite activity as serving the needy made me feel that I am serving the humanity.
Sir, you may not imagine and I cannot even express in words my gratitude towards you. Learning such acts of humanity at the school level is certainly going to make us good human beings in the future and we promise that we will live by all the lessons we have learnt here.
In the end, I would like to thank everyone for supporting me in all manners, especially the teachers for standing by me in my odd days. Though, none of us know, where will our life take us, but wherever we go, we will forever preserve in our hearts, the respect for our school and each and every staff of our school.
Thank you everyone and I wish good luck to each one of you for your future!
Explanation:
The party began at 4 p.m. For about one hour, we ate to our heart’s content, chatted and laughed without restrictions. The party came to an end at 5 p.m. The farewell function started after the party was over. Mr. Anthony D’Souza, a student of class XI, made an emotional farewell speech in which he mentioned our long and deep association with the school as well as with his class. His speech, which was full of praise and appreciation for our outgoing class, was delivered in a befitting manner. His farewell speech was punctuated with humorous remarks and pleasantries. Anthony also prayed for our successful future. His presentation and theme were very touching.
After his speech, I, on behalf of my class, thanked the host students and got blessings from my teachers and the honorable principal. In my speech, I lauded the good arrangements made by the hosts and accepted their good wishes and feelings for all of us. While delivering the speech, I was experiencing a mixed feeling. I was feeling happy because I was on the verge of completing my school life successfully and was also sad because of the separation from the institution in whose lap I had obtained education and training of my mind and body. For me, my school was an embodiment of knowledge and learning, whose sacred atmosphere would always be part of my memory. For me, this was not merely a school that imparted knowledge but a cradle of decent culture and civilization.
In the end, the principal whose association with the school is as old as the history of our school, made an impassioned speech. In his farewell message, he gave us some pieces of advice, to be followed by us throughout our lives. He made a fervent appeal to build mind and character on sound lines. He stressed upon us to inculcate a spirit of service and sacrifice as well as of patriotism and nationalism. After his encouraging speech, the function came to end
