Dear Graduating MAPAITE, the merrymaking at the end of the semester is absolutely worth it. No matter the degree of encounters you have experienced all through you stint in school – the tide of the breach of peace in school – everything at the end will profoundly be at peace.
It’s rare in the history of a school to take three exams consecutively in a year. Our polytechnic did it and here you are, shaking off the shock, pushing through and counting down on exams. In fact, we deserve special acknowledgement. You really need to hail yourself.
Dear Graduating MAPAITE, the examination will soon be over. There’ll be no more overnight reading and group reading activity in the to-do list. However, for the time being, I’ll urge you all to desist from examination malpractice because no matter how smart you think you are, the devil will one day leave you to your unjust act and the God’s rod will catch up with you. Remember, every time for the thief, one day for the owner.
Indeed, the atmosphere calls for festivity as it’s the time to sign-out or logout. The SUG week went well with lots of joy swirling the air. The cheerings, congratulations, clothing, pictures coupled with the drinking and eating are all making this end of the semester remarkable. I am quite sure if horse rides, gallops in our stomachs, it will not stumble, not even once.
Also, the fantabulous felicity of FYB was filled with enormous exhilaration for a good one week. Seeing the students flaunting their designer-clothes was really thrilling especially the Back-to-School day that saw students don secondary school uniforms. It makes one to reminisce about one’s time in the old days when studying was seen as strenuous, unnecessary task. The graduating students were full of fun for the day and other days.
However, it’s apparent that students are still in celebration mood, and they’re planning to extend their ceremony beyond the school’s vicinity after their exams. Consequently, the management has placed prohibition on the logging-out, final year procession and the planned march. The students should avoid this as the management has stated so as not to distort the blissful breeze of the season. Besides, what is the rationality in the march from the school to Panseke? We are educated individuals for goodness sake!
Definitely, graduating students cannot afford to trigger the wrath of the management at their most joyous time. The management has ordered the C.S.O to apprehend erring students. Thus, it’s better students shuck the walk since it’s a taint on the school’s image and does not also portray ideal students image and literacy.
Ultimately, graduating students should continue to be morally upright and phenomenal everywhere they find themselves. They should also be good ambassadors of the school knowing that no matter the shortcomings of the school, they’ll be the one holding the certificate. To badmouth the school is to stain your qualification!
Happy Graduation!
