Tiny Sparks, Infinite Skies: Celebrating Our Graduating Class of 2025

On 12th November 2025, we gathered in the hall to celebrate the 2025 Prize-Giving and Graduation Ceremony, themed “Tiny Sparks, Infinite Skies.” The theme reminds us that every small effort, act of kindness, and moment of courage can grow into something much bigger, opening up endless possibilities for our students’ futures.

The ceremony began with a warm welcome from our emcees Iskandar, Ying Xin & Mr Haziq, followed by an inspiring address by Tanglin School’s Principal, Mr Phua, and our Guest of Honour, Mrs Liza Ow. They encouraged the graduating students to carry their strengths, values and friendships with them as they take their next steps into the world. Awards were presented to recognise academic effort, character, service and the resilience and growth our students have demonstrated throughout their years at school.

One of the highlights of the morning was the graduation segment, where each student crossed the stage to receive their certificate. Teachers, parents and caregivers watched with pride, having walked closely alongside the students in their journeys. Surprise performances by our teachers added colour and joy to the event, showcasing their hidden talents and bringing smiles to everyone in the hall.

As the ceremony drew to a close, the hall was filled with smiles, photos and heartfelt farewells. Our graduating class may have started their journeys as “tiny sparks,” but they now step forward ready to explore the “infinite skies”, to discover the world, believe in their dreams and have faith in themselves, and be the best they can be. We wish all our graduates every success as they move on to new paths in living, learning and working

Their dedication and teamwork shone through on competition day, reflecting the strong partnership between staff and students in nurturing creativity and excellence.

Our students clinched First Place in the Mocktail Creation and Wearable Accessories individual categories, and the school emerged as the Overall Second Place winner among all APSN schools.
