Preparation, Dinner and Ceremony

Most girls wore traditional clothes for the ceremony. Japanese wore Yukata, Chinese wore Chinese dress--Qi Pao, Voon wore a Thai dress, and others wore dresses. A few people wore make up and earrings for the dinner and ceremony. 

After the preparation, we had dinner in the dining hall. The hall was all decorated nicely. There were green apples with our name tags on and there were some flowers in lemon jars which were very fashionable. We also had a celebration cake which was made especially for Emma. It was incredible. 

So beautiful!

After the dinner, we went to a bigger hall. There, we had our good-bye ceremony. First, the principal gave us a speech, then, Ms.Wendy gave each student their graduation certificate. 

Also, our proctors and houseparents delivered a speech. Finally, we made a web of memories with string. Each person shared their best memory in the summer program and cut a part of string to make a bracelet so that we can keep our sweet memories. Thanks to all the teachers and the girls who participated in the decoration and the dinner and the ceremony.
