Graduation Ceremony 2025: Celebrating Growth, Achievement, and New Beginnings

The 2025 Graduation Ceremony was a memorable milestone for the Chuo International School (CIS) community, celebrating the achievements, growth, and perseverance of our students. Held at Tower Hall Funabori, the ceremony brought together families from our Tokyo and Shin-Urayasu campuses to reflect on an incredible school year and recognize each child's accomplishments.

The celebration was made even more special as we welcomed the Sunshine Kids Academy (SKA) community to join us for this shared event. Inspired by The Wizard of Oz and the theme "Somewhere Over the Rainbow," the ceremony celebrated every child's journey of curiosity, courage, friendship, and personal growth.

Celebrating a Year of Learning and Growth

The ceremony reflected everything our students had accomplished throughout the school year. Graduation was not simply about receiving certificates—it celebrated the confidence, independence, resilience, and character they had developed during their time at CIS.

Watching students take the stage with confidence was a proud moment for teachers and families alike. Children who had once entered the classroom with uncertainty confidently performed before a full audience, supported one another, and celebrated each other's achievements.

Sharing the occasion with the Sunshine Kids Academy community made the event even more meaningful and highlighted the close relationship between our two schools.

Highlights from the Ceremony

The ceremony featured a variety of performances and memorable moments that showcased the students' creativity, confidence, and growth.

The programme included:

• Opening Remarks and School Song

• Ballet Performance by Preschool and Kindergarten Students

• Nursery Class Songs and Certificate Presentation

• Preschool and Pre-Kinder Certificate Ceremony

• Kindergarten Graduation Recognition

• Graduation Anthem performed by Preschool, Pre-Kinder, Kindergarten, and Elementary Students

• Closing Song

Each performance reflected the dedication and progress students had made throughout the academic year and celebrated the milestones they had reached together.

Reflecting on a Meaningful Milestone

The Graduation Ceremony served as a celebration of every achievement—both big and small—that students had experienced throughout the year. Academic progress, personal development, creativity, and kindness were all recognised as important parts of their educational journey.

The event also reflected the strong partnership between Chuo International School and Sunshine Kids Academy, bringing both communities together to celebrate the children and the memories they had created.

Congratulations to the Class of 2025

We extend our heartfelt congratulations to every student who reached this important milestone.

We also thank our dedicated teachers, staff, and families for their continued encouragement and support throughout the school year. Their commitment helped make the Graduation Ceremony a truly memorable celebration.

As we look back on Graduation 2025, we are proud of everything our students accomplished and wish them every success as they continue their educational journey.
