It was a day that Wellington College Hangzhou was turned into a more vibrant place than ever before. The Wellington Avenue was filled with cheers, with the melody of 'One Perfect Moment' echoing around the campus and the sun shining brilliantly, as if all were waiting and welcoming this moment –  a moment destined to be special, and a moment of special meaning for the graduates.

On the afternoon of 10th May at 2 pm, at WCCH, the graduation ceremony for the class of 2024 began. 

 

What a lively and joyous scene it was! Each heart was brimming with sentiment. Together we witnessed the end of a journey which is also a new beginning. These pupils would step from Wellington Avenue into a wider world, and higher steps.

In the eyes of the teachers, our graduates are insatiably curious and brimming with character. They have shined in all fields such as academics, arts, and sports, pursued their passions and actively participated in school activities, and demonstrated outstanding leadership while realising their self-worth. They have stayed true to themselves and worked hard with others. 

 

They truly are young trailblazers.

The Head of the Sixth Form of WCCH recalled the heartwarming years spent with the graduates. Those personal and fond memories shared with each graduate are a testament to the unforgettable years they have shared. Only with a sincere heart can such profound connections be forged. 

 

 

 

 

 

You will look back on your time at this school with fondness, remembering the friends you made, the lessons you learned, and the experiences that shaped you into the unique and amazing people that you are. As you embark on this exciting chapter, never forget your roots, and remember to be brave, to be confident, and follow your dreams.  

 

Please remember these three things: remain true to yourself and carve out your own path, continue to be open to new experiences because you never know what’s just around the corner, and never be too hard on yourself as this is a waste of time and effort.

The train from WCCH has arrived at the station. Our first cohort of graduates will continue to uphold the values of kindness, responsibility, respect, courage and integrity to the next stop of their life journey. The Master of WCCH, Ms Kathryn Richardson remarked, 

 

 

 

 

 

“You are the very first graduates of Wellington College Hangzhou and what a high bar you have set for everyone! I am proud of each and every one of you. You have made our school a better place and I thank you for that. I hope you will never forget the five Wellington values that you have learned in our school.” 

 

Lastly, remember that you are not alone.

A few years ago, with great anticipation, the ten pupils joined WCCH. Over more than 2000 days and nights, every class witnessed their hard work, every activity supported their growth, and every achievement bore the fruit of their dedication. 

 

They have worked hard and have become the people they aspired to be. They will set out from here this early summer to write even more splendid chapters.

Their efforts at every moment of every day have now turned into dazzling offers, giving accolades to WCCH. 

 

This graduation season has seen the ten graduates receiving nearly 60 offers, with up to 90% of them admitted to the world's top 50 institutions, and 50% of them to the world's top 20 institutions and scholarships. 

 

We are immensely proud of them.
