It was not so long ago when we dared to dream, not so long ago when we dared to take

the first essential steps towards the fulfilment of our elementary education.

Today, together with my batchmates, we celebrate our success after all these years of
hardship, struggle and perseverance. We reminisce the challenges that stood before us and we
savor the victories that came upon our hands.

Dennis Redrico, teaching force of Calpi Elementary School headed by Sir Michael John S.
Rañada, guests, visitors, fellow graduates and to our dear parents… Good Afternoon.

Standing here in front of everybody, have this feeling of pride and happiness. Because I
have proven to myself that I can be the best of what I am only if I will strive hard and have a
sense determination and perseverance. I am also happy because all my efforts and sacrifices were
well paid off.

Thank you for the insurmountable dedication and patient in teaching us. Maáms and Sirs,
We learned a lot of things from you which we will value as we continue getting through our
dreams.

And of course, we will not be here today without our wonderful parents, so let me us take
this opportunity to say thank you for always being there for us. You help us with our homework,
cheer us on at our games and performances, and show us unconditional love. We couldn't do it
without you. Let me also take this momentous occasion to express my gratitude to my parents,
Mama Onang and Papa Nior, my lolo Irming and Lola Aling, Mama Lorn, Tita Jovs and Tito
Yong for your love, sacrifices, and unending support.

But most importantly, I want to congratulate my fellow students. We did it! We made it
through another year of learning and growing. We have worked so hard, and today is a day to
celebrate all of our achievements.
 I am so proud of each and every one of us. We have learned so much, from reading and
writing to math and science. But we have also learned important life skills, like how to be kind,
how to work together, and how to never give up.

As we move on to the next chapter of our education, let's remember all that we have
accomplished here. Let's keep being curious, asking questions, and never being afraid to try new
things. We are capable of anything we set our minds to.

I am excited for what the future holds for all of us. We have so much potential, and I
know that we will make a difference in the world. Let's continue to dream big, work hard, and
always believe in ourselves.

Thank you once again to everyone who has supported us along the way. We are so
grateful for your love and encouragement. And congratulations again to my fellow students. We
did it!

Thank you! Again good afternoon.
