Congratulate & Wish all Graduates Good Luck


Graduation Day is the day you can say ‘I’ve done it’, a milestone in your life. Graduation is a transition between childhood and adulthood, a final farewell bash after the years of school.

Graduation ceremonies can be a solemn occasion or time for celebration. It’s time to bid good-bye to the ‘seniors’ or outgoing students. As the graduates come out with stars in their eyes & dreams in their heart, share their joy and let them know how proud you are, so reach out to your newly graduated son/ daughter/ grandchild/ friend/ sibling/ senior/ dear ones with ecards, gifts and wish them good luck for their future endeavours.


Graduation is the true beginning of the ‘rest of our lives’. For one evening, it's celebration, and then childhood is left behind & all set to enter a world of independence and adult responsibilities.

A graduation ceremony is a cultural tradition termed as a rite of passage, a ritual or ceremony that marks one stage of a person's life to another. Each culture either creates it's own rite of passage ceremony, or acquires one being handed-down (tradition) or both; and, will form a new ritual based on the current moment. The graduation ceremony dates back to the 12th century. Some feel it began with scholastic monks with their ceremonies in robes and has evolved to fit the society in which it is celebrated ever since.

There are two ceremonies Baccalaureate & Commencement. The baccalaureate ceremony is considered the highlight of the school year. It is especially a time to formally recognize the achievements of students who are in honor societies and who have earned academic excellence. In other words, it's for those who truly studied, did not cheat or steal ideas off others and truly were honest and worked to be the best of what they could be.

The commencement is when the graduates are handed their diplomas and walk across the stage and flip the tassels on their hats upon receiving their degrees and handshake. However, with some schools having both the ceremonies is too expensive and a lot of work, so the baccalaureate is blending with the commencement, sometimes making it a long event.

After the ceremony, graduates head home for a day of much needed rest, and then many rush to the local photo shop to have their films developed. Many meet in the days to follow, for other graduation parties and to exchange photos. Grads recognize commencement as a celebration of academic accomplishments and, just as important, a time to commemorate the friendships they had formed.
