As the early summer sun shines, each Dulwich College International campus is filled with hope and laughter. This moment marks a new beginning, carrying the promise of the future. From Beijing, Shanghai, Seoul, Singapore, Suzhou to Zhuhai, Dulwich College International graduates have concluded the first act in the symphony of their youth, composed from their talents and hard work. As we embrace another graduation season, let's take a moment to celebrate the shining moments of the Class of 2024! 

The graduation ceremony at Dulwich College Beijing began with a heartfelt speech by Clare Anderson-Au, the Head of Senior School. She encouraged the graduates of 2024 to bravely face the challenges of independent life and steadfastly pursue their goals. Here, the graduates found their direction and the courage to grow. Now, they embark on new journeys, heading towards broader horizons.

The graduation ceremony at Dulwich College Shanghai Pudong was held at the prestigious Mei Lanfang Grand Theatre. Head of College Mr. Garry Russell creatively recounted the legendary experiences of alumnus Ernest Shackleton to inspire the graduates of 2024. He emphasized the importance of upholding the six core values of Dulwich Pudong: Respect, Integrity, Responsibility, Resilience, Kindness, and Inclusivity. As a token of remembrance, the graduates planted a sapling in the Alumni Grove, symbolizing their deep bond with the school growing with time.

The graduation celebration at Dulwich College Shanghai Puxi started with the traditional year-end photo on the Bund, followed by a celebratory dinner. Graduates gathered with their families, teachers, and classmates, embodying the school's core values. Their lofty aspirations, resilience, kindness, and mutual respect will guide them as they venture into the world with broader perspectives and innovative thinking.

Dulwich College Suzhou students have earned the favor of many prestigious universities through their relentless efforts and outstanding achievements. This year, one-third of the graduates spent over 10 years at Dulwich College Suzhou. No matter where they go in the future, they will be guided by the spirit of Dulwich, pursuing excellence and never stopping.

Years of hard work and beautiful memories culminated in a solemn yet warm ceremony for the 32 graduates of Dulwich College Seoul. They have been accepted into renowned universities worldwide, such as Cambridge, Edinburgh, Columbia, Chicago, USC, and NYU. This achievement not only reflects their strength but also the perfect alignment of their interests and dreams.

113 students walked through familiar corridors, greeted by enthusiastic cheers from DUCKS, Junior School, Senior School students, and parents. They listened to inspiring speeches from the Head of College and Head of Senior School, and watched touching films filled with memories. The celebration concluded with a reception in the dining hall, where parents and teachers toasted their success. Their hard work and dedication have paid off, and we eagerly anticipate their extraordinary impact on the global stage.

The graduation ceremony marked not only the end of their high school years but also the beginning of a new chapter in their lives. May they sail far, carrying dreams, fearlessly facing challenges, and climbing new heights. At this meaningful moment, we extend our warmest congratulations and best wishes to them!

In Zhuhai, on the shores of the South China Sea, Dulwich students have demonstrated immense creativity and exceptional leadership. They have made significant academic progress while cultivating invaluable qualities in teamwork and social responsibility. Armed with these treasures, they will forge ahead, leading the future.

In this season of hope, we extend our warmest congratulations and best wishes to all graduates:
