The letter reads: "303 dear little swallows! Today, you are no longer shy first graders hiding behind your mother. You have truly grown up in your thoughts, matured in your actions and matured in your emotions.

She calls you "childhood swallows" - because you, like the first swallows of the season, have flown up from this elementary school yard - carrying hope, carrying pure dreams and a luggage full of love.

You know, swallows are the symbol of spring – of beginnings, of vitality and aspiration. Just like you – age 11 – the age of turning points, the age of new doors opening wide ahead.

From this moment, you will begin a new journey – a journey to conquer knowledge in secondary school, a journey to maturity. And above all, a journey for you to discover yourself. But always remember that every journey requires a loving heart and a grateful heart.

Love your school – where you had such beautiful days. Be grateful to your parents – who silently stood by you, taking care of every step. Be grateful to your teachers – who silently fueled your dreams to grow day by day.

Today, you are leaving… like swallows flying away from the first spring – leaving elementary school for a new journey. Teachers do not hold you back, because teachers believe that: 11-year-old swallows are strong enough to fly far. Fly with dreams. Fly with love. Fly with the most beautiful things that you have received from this school.

I wish you will always be brave and strong swallows, and carry the spring of childhood with you throughout your journey of growing up...".

"Today, you leave... like swallows flying away from the first spring - leaving elementary school for a new journey..."

Emotional moment at the ceremony

Innocent moments with friends in the schoolyard

The most touching moment of the ceremony was when the first notes of the song "When Drinking Water, Remember Its Source" were played. The 5th graders stood up and silently bowed their heads towards their parents sitting below the stage.

Immediately after that, the song "Thank you, Teacher - Our Teacher" was played. The children once again turned around and bowed deeply to the teachers sitting on the left side of the stage. Their eyes were filled with tears of emotion, as if expressing their sincere gratitude to those who had guided them throughout their elementary school journey.

Touching moment of gratitude

The gratitude ceremony for 5th grade students was held solemnly, warmly with many emotions. The new students who were shy and bewildered in 1st grade have now come to leave school and enter new learning environments. The ceremony witnessed many emotional moments when students ran to find the nanny and security guard to express their gratitude for the years of dedication to taking care of them from eating, drinking, discipline, sleep... to ensuring the safety of the students...

Enjoy playing with many memories before leaving elementary school

In addition to the ceremony, the festival and gratitude of the students are also carefully prepared with many meanings. Each class has a separate booth to freely express their memories of their beloved school. Each student will write on the petals about their dreams and ambitions on the day of saying goodbye to the school.

In the 2024-2025 school year, Nguyen Binh Khiem Primary School has 303 5th grade students completing the primary school program. They also achieved many achievements in competitions and competitions at the city, national, and international levels....
