Welcome Speech in English for Learning and Growth of School Students: Long and Short 

‘My dear students, I welcome you all to a brand new school year. I am so excited to see all of your familiar, new, and enthusiastic faces. 

This year, we are boarding on a wonderful journey of learning and growth. As you all have walked through the doors of our school, do remember that you are the shining stars of your journey. Trust your power to make this year amazing.

Every day will come as a challenge for you but your adventure and curiosity will overcome all. Do not forget to step out of your comfort zone and explore new things, thoughts that you have never thought about before. Push yourself far beyond the boundaries of what you know because that is where actual learning happens.

Dear students, never evaluate your success with your grades. Learn about the knowledge you gain, the skills you develop, and the compassion you show to others. Remember to set your goals, and do not let anything else hold you back from reaching your full potential.

As you are beginning the new school year, think about what you want to accomplish. Your accomplishments can be personal too, for instance developing a new hobby or becoming confident in whatever you do. Meanwhile, you should not forget that true greatness is not just about successful results. 

It is also about the journey which you take to get there. Learn from the challenges and the setbacks that you might face. These drawbacks will further help you to grow the most. In this learning journey, your teachers, your peers, and everyone around you are here at school to support you. Together we all will help you to overcome every obstacle and to cherish the victories. 

One of the things that makes our school community unique is the incredible diversity that we have. Our different backgrounds, cultures, and experiences are what make us strong. Every student gathered over here brings unique perspectives and sets of skills to the table. Trust me, embracing diversity and learning from each other brings amazing results. 

Try to reach out to those whose experiences are different from your own. Try to listen to them with an open heart and mind, so that their stories can help you to grow and learn.

Last but not least, I want to discuss the most important part of your academic journey and that is the importance of embracing challenges. Dear students, life is full of ups and downs. Do you think this year or any forthcoming year will be an exception? No! There will be several times when things don’t work according to you and sometimes it might be impossibly hard.

But remember that it is in those difficult times that we grow the most. When we face challenges head-on, we develop in-person, enhance our problem-solving skills, and understand ourselves more deeply. 

My dear students, our brand new journey is the opportunity for you to shine. You have the power to make this year an extraordinary one and I cannot wait to see what you all accomplish. So let us all get started and learn, explore, and overcome any challenges that come your way.

Thank you!’

‘Hello, my dear friends. As we all start our new school year, I want to challenge every one of you to think about what you want to achieve. What are your real passions and what gets you excited about and makes you motivated? All these self-evaluation questions are going to pave you towards greatness.

As you all know true success is just not about getting good grades or winning awards. It is about discovering who you are and what you are capable of doing. Furthermore, it is about pushing yourself beyond your limits and comfort zone too so that you can leave a lasting impact on the world around you. 

Please take a moment and think about what things look like to you. What are those that you want to set for yourself this year? It can be learning a new skill, language, or community project that you are passionate about or may want to improve your grades to become a better student. 

Pursue anything but meanwhile do not forget that the journey of learning and greatness is not always easy. You will face challenges, and setbacks, and might sometimes give up. It is all okay to feel so but lastly what is important is to stay positive in the end, keep pushing yourself forward and never lose sight of your dreams. 

Take the help of your teachers and your elders to make this journey remarkable. 

Take a deep breath and let the excitement of the unknown fill your senses. This is your moment to shine and leave your footmarks for the world. 

Thank you!’
