About Graduation

Graduation marks the end of years of study and the start of a new chapter. Families gather to watch the graduate receive a degree in cap and gown.

In India the ceremony is often called convocation. Around the world, graduates throw their caps in the air, take photos with classmates and celebrate with a family meal.

A graduation message praises the hard work, thanks the people who helped and looks ahead with hope to work, further study or a new city.

How to wish well

  • Praise the effort, not only the marks.
  • Wish them well for the next step, whatever it is.
  • Avoid asking about jobs or salary on the day itself.
  • Parents can thank teachers too; it means a lot to them.
