SPEECH: TURNOVER OF THE KEY OF RESPONSIBILITY To the School Principal of this institution, Mr. Anel P. Acuña, Teachers, Faculty and staff, and to my fellow juniors, a pleasant evening to one and all. I may say that this prestigious evening, this 25TH day of February in the year 2023, will be greatly rated like being one of the most grand blockbuster film in our lives. In a few more episodes, we, juniors, will undergo to more difficult tapings and pictorials because we will encounter a greater production; more actors to be met and more roles to be performed. And of course, one thing is for sure, we are always the writer of our own story. But for now, let us all congratulate ourselves for we all have been doing our best to make this tale as fulfilling as we want and as adventurous as we make it. When I made my first step in this school way back my freshman year, one thing I can’t forget is our innocent selves just like a blind man who seeks the right path, looking for the light behind the darkness of that innocence. In my four years of staying here in this institution, I can conclude that counting the wonderful moments that we shared in our high school days is an incredible one. Yes, even giving of any sizes of paper during quizzes, during breaks and being “pasaway” in front of our teachers, all are considered factors that made this experience complete and of course, a perfect one. We have encountered many things as high school students but still our journey will not stop after this stage. And I’m very proud that we never lost hope when failures and disappointments come to our way. We already did our part being the juniors because we defended what we love, and fought for what we believe in. At this juncture, being the class President of the Grade 10 as well as the SSG President,I am ___________________ it’s my privilege to pass on the key of responsibility to you juniors who will be following our footsteps. In few more days, your job is to continue our unfinished tasks as we sail in our respective ships to discover new oceans. Responsibility is the key in order for you to succeed. Expect the worst situation but always strive for the best. Consider such challenges as a blessing. May each and every one of you will fulfill your roles and commitments with honor, passion and pride. Thank You. TURNOVER OF MANTLE OF RESPONSIBILITY Guest of Honor and speaker, Principal, Faculty Staff, PTA President and Officers, Alumni, Parents, Juniors, and fellow Seniors, a pleasant good evening. This lovely evening of, 8th of February in the year 2014 will be one of the most memorable events of our life, the integral part of our high school experiences – the Junior-Senior Prom. In four years of stay in our beloved Alma Mater, the Sta. Catalina Academy, our student life here will soon come to an end. This is the realization that we are leaving high school in the days to come. We, Seniors, will take an important step into a new stage of our life where greater challenge lies ahead. Juniors, you are the inheritors of the strong and proud legacy of our school. Being the next batch of Seniors, you will continue the cycle of high school life. On your shoulders lies the responsibility of being the role model where underclassmen will look upon to you as their big brothers and sisters. You will continue our unfinished tasks as we sail to discover new world. Juniors, strive to hone your skills and traits of being the leader and role model of the younger students of our school. Respect and utilized also the wisdom that you have learned from us, from our experiences and successes because we have come before you and had crossed this difficult stage of being the Seniors. Fellow Seniors, invested me with responsibilities as being the class leader. At this juncture, it is my honor and privilege to pass on to you, Juniors, the mantle of responsibilities. We have done our part and it is now the time to relinquished it on to you. Each mantle bears the weight of task. Put it on, and carry its weight, and go on with the journey. We knew that you are willing and able to continue the cycle of work that we are going to left behind. This turning over of mantle does not mean that we turned our back toward the school. It only marks the beginning of our greater responsibility toward our Alma Mater as well as the community. We have a vision for our school -- a vision of greatness. I exhort you, all of you, Juniors to nurture this vision as I passed this mantle of responsibilities on to you. May each and every one of you will fulfill your roles and commitments with honor, passion and pride. Thank You.
