Doha Academy Al Waab Branch hosted Reception (Al Waab, Salwa), Year 6 (Al Waab, Salwa) and Secondary (boys and girls) graduation ceremonies to celebrate the achievements of the graduates. Ceremonies involved a march of students, reading of speeches, reading of Quran, various performances, the giving diplomas and the official moment when the students were declared graduates. It was one of the most important moments in our students’ lives as it marked a transition from one stage of their educational life to another. Graduation party was attended by DA schools’ Principal Mr. Graeme M. Garrett, Deputy Principal Mr. Shane Foley, by DA schools’ academic staff, parents, friends. The major part of the ceremony was taken up by the distribution of degrees to the students who marched up the stage as their names were announced. It was a moment of pride for a student as well as the parents.

The ceremonies ended with all graduates throwing their hats into the air as a sign of rejoicing over their new status.
