“Everyone will come and go” . But forgiving and always praying for each other is the most appropriate choice for us to do.
There are many ways to decorate the farewell that occurs, depending on what we want our farewell story to be like, such as the moment of Graduation of the 6th batch of SMP-SMA Cahaya Rancamaya Islamic Boarding School which was held on 28 May 2023 at Hotel Aston BNR Bogor. The happy moment was adorned with tears of joy from all the attendees.
On the one hand, the graduates and parents must be very happy because they have successfully passed three years of struggle for both children and parents who are full of challenges, struggles and stories both joy and sorrow. But on the other hand, the tears of emotion and tears of happiness finally spilled unstoppably when witnessing a simple but very special performance presented by the graduates for their parents as an expression of gratitude for their services and struggles for the children until now.
The atmosphere of emotion and happiness is also more complete with the support and presence of important figures in the city of Bogor, such as Mr Drs. Dedie A Rachim, MA. As the Deputy Mayor of Bogor who also had time to give speeches, advice, hopes, prayers and congratulations to the graduates directly. Also present were Mr H. Sujatmiko Baliarto, Atd, M.M as Head of the Bogor City Education Office and several representatives from the KCD and KEMENAG of Bogor city, EDUVERSAL, and other Partner Schools.
In this happy moment, the graduates who have struggled to give their best achievements for the school and even for Indonesia are also given extraordinary appreciation and awards from Cahaya Rancamaya Islamic Boarding School as a form of gratitude for the struggles they have done.
At the end of the event, the final speech was also given directly by our Teacher, the Nation’s Teacher, Mr Emha Ainun Nadjib or familiarly known as Mbah Nun or Cak Nun as the representative of the graduates, because his family was one of the attendees who was happy on that day, because his youngest son was also graduated. There were not many points he wanted to emphasise, but his message from his speech was “to continue to be grateful and never forget to be grateful”, especially for the graduates, who should be grateful that they have the family and parents they have now, because if it wasn’t for their parents they wouldn’t be as successful as they are now.
