萨摩亚是一个注重仪式的国家,在这里,让我经历了很多未曾体验的仪式感。
因为下周学生就放假离校了,所以校长把跟我farewell的事情安排在了今天在学校的HALL举行。
(提前发布通知)
仪式由副校长MsMaka主持,每个班级派一个代表发言,表示对我的感谢,然后送上精心准备的礼物,还有学生用中文表示谢意,引起现场的阵阵掌声和欢呼。
(我们班的学霸发言)
(同学们的礼物)
(手写卡片)
(祝福和礼物)
与我刚来时的自我介绍一样,我也做了简短的发言,在感谢了孩子们的礼物后,表达了我对萨摩亚优美环境的喜爱,对萨摩亚司机礼让行人的赞许,对LEIFIIFICOLLEGE教师和好朋友的不舍,对学生的肯定,对所有的支持表示感谢。
(发言中)
整个活动持续了大约1个小时,感动、激动、庄严不断触动着我,再见了萨摩亚,期待我们还能再相见!
附上英语发言全文,以资纪念,勿喷哦。
