Kuen Cheng Debate Club
25th of August 2023, 3:15p.m. Kuen Cheng High School Debate Club held its annual farewell ceremony for the graduating seniors. The farewell ceremony started off in the school’s activity hall, while members from the English fraction of the club moved to another classroom for the buffet and closing segment later on.
The theme for the event was “Blazing Dazzle”《炽·曜》, an analogy of how the graduating seniors’ efforts shine like blazing fires and help fuel the club.
Before the farewell party started, the organizing committee faced some minor issues as they needed time to familiarise themselves with the new environment in the activity hall. The farewell party started by splitting all the members into groups with two to three graduating seniors each. All graduating seniors were given balloons to hold on to so as to be recognised easily.
Games Session
During the games session, there was a round of Musical Chairs, barely fitting more than 100 members, and an intense segment where graduating seniors popped each others’ balloons. Small gifts were given to those whose balloons still remained while every graduating senior would receive their proper gifts at a later date.
Group Photo with Graduating Seniors
After a quick photo for all the graduating seniors, both the English and Chinese fraction of the club had their separate closing segments. The graduating seniors were then called up and gave their farewell speeches after everyone had gotten their food.
