Good morning one and all.

Respected Principal sir, teachers and my dear friends,

it is my pleasure and privilege to stand before you today. I am honored to have
this opportunity to speak to such a distinguished audience.
Today on this occasion, I would like to share a few words on the significance of
adolescence.
Individuals undergo significant change and development during adolescence. It is
a time of transition between childhood and adulthood that is known by changes
in the body, the mind, and the emotions. Its main traits are increased
independence, self-consciousness, and a desire for autonomy.
The beginning of puberty is one of the biggest changes that happens during
adolescence. This is the time when the body starts to develop, resulting in
physical changes such growth spurts, altered body composition, and the
emergence of secondary sexual traits. Adolescents go through both physical and
mental changes, promotes analytical thinking and logical reasoning.
Moreover, adolescents go through a variety of emotional changes, such as
elevated moodiness, heightened consciousness, and elevated sense of
individuality.
Teenagers also start to develop their own personalities at this period. They begin
to doubt their identity and their aspirations. Because there are so many
alternatives and possibilities available to teenagers.
Adolescents start to develop stronger interactions with their classmates as they
become more independent. They begin to rely on their peers for encouragement
and approval.
Adolescence is, generally speaking, a period of rapid personal development.
Adolescents must manage the physical, mental, and emotional changes that take
place during this stage of transition. Teenagers are beginning to develop their
own identities and explore their own hobbies and passions, so it is a time of
immense potential and opportunity as well. Adolescents are able to persist
through this time of transition and develop into self-assured, capable adults with
the proper help and guidance.
Thank you for being such a wonderful audience
