24 May 2025 | Graduation Day – A Celebration of Journeys and New Beginnings
At Pledge Harbor International School, Saturday, 24 May was not just a date on the calendar — it was a day that will live forever in our hearts.
From our youngest learners in PYP 5 moving up to the Middle Years Programme, to our MYP 5 students stepping confidently into the Diploma Programme, and finally to our DP2 graduates bidding farewell to the place they’ve called home — the entire day was woven with emotions, memories, and milestones.
In the presence of proud parents, teachers, mentors, and the entire school community, we celebrated:
Heartfelt speeches by class representatives
Soulful songs from our School Choir that stirred emotions
The much-awaited End-of-the-Year Awards recognizing hard work, leadership, and transformation
A moving address by our Head of School, Ms. Kaniz Zareen, declaring the Class of 2025 as graduates
And then… came the moment that always breaks us a little inside.
As our DP2 students shifted their tassels and took the Graduation Oath, the dorms, once filled with noise, laughter, and dreams, felt just a bit too quiet. Their departure has left us with that familiar ache — the empty nest syndrome only a boarding school family truly knows.
To our dear graduates:
You arrived with dreams in your eyes, and you leave with stars in your stride. Your legacy lives in our classrooms, our dorms, and our hearts. Wherever you go, remember — once a Panther, always a Panther.
Here’s to the journeys ahead, and the unforgettable memories left behind.
