I am a big fan of the ceremony behind a preschool (DAYCARE CENTERS) graduation. A preschool graduation ceremony is a great opportunity to celebrate learning and recognize an important milestone, one that may be the first of many milestones.
The families & teachers celebrated the first of many future graduations in a child’s lifespan. When a child prepares and attends her/ his graduation they know that their family, friends, and teachers are celebrating them!
The graduation ceremony is all about each child’s milestones and accomplishments. Just a few of the amazing accomplishments recognized are learning numbers and letters, learning to write your name, measuring using the metric system, learning new words in foreign languages, learning sign language, and so much more!
At CDC founded by Hon. Ky Col. Onesmo Alfred McBride Ngowi in Moshi, Tanzania children also learn to value nature through outdoor play and to value friendships from the social relationships developed at the center. Most importantly, children at CDC learn that they are kept safe, cared for, and nurtured by other people besides just Mom, Dad, and family members.
The innate feeling of pride and accomplishment showed at CDC today as children walked to receive their preschool certificates was so amazing. From the flowers pinned on their uniforms to hearing their names announced by the MC for the first time, today’s CDC graduation was a special moment.
Graduation is a great opportunity for families to teach their young children the importance of education and today’s CDC graduation was the first of many graduations in their life.
The CDC’s caregivers did a wonderful job to prepare children for the occasions and they really excited their parents through exciting demonstrations of counting numbers, reading, signing, and showcasing their self-reliance and discipline.
For this amazing day, I say, “Keep graduating Christina Daycare Center”
