Script for Alumni Homecoming

Sarinah: Homecoming unites the past and the present. And to look backward for a while is to refresh the eye, to
restore it, and to render it the more fit for its prime function of looking forward.

Ryan: Respected guests, alumnus from every batch, former and new administrators, former and new faculty
members, ladies and gentlemen, good morning and welcome to the 50th Founding Anniversary and 2nd Grand Alumni
Homecoming of St. Isidore Academy.

S: With the theme SIA celebrates 50 years of Academic Excellence that reaches greater heights through Unity.
Today marks another milestone in the history of St. Isidore Academy as we push the boat out on this 50th Founding
Anniversary and 2nd Grand Alumni Homecoming of St. Isidore Academy. To start with today’s celebration, let us all

Reading of the Awards ....

E: Desire is the key to motivation, but its determination and commitment to an unrelenting pursuit of your goal -
a commitment to excellence - that will enable you to attain the success you seek. And today’s Junior high

curricular as well. Ladies and gentlemen, the Awarding of Special Academic Awards and Non Academic
Awards for Gr 10 students.

Reading of Awards ....

E: Congratulations, honor students! Indeed, you have shown enough in order to succeed the entire school year.
Now, may I requests the completers to please come forward for the Pledge of Loyalty and Commitment to be
led by Ms. Lizlee Vieh Getigan and to be followed by the singing of Recognition Song and Tribute Song.
