On Wednesday 20 December 2023, the French Embassy organised the BIA graduation ceremony.

Mr Markko Mattus, the Director of EEB4, Mr Man Hua, the BIA trainer who is also a teacher at the school, as well as the winning pupils and their families were welcomed by Mr the Ambassador, Mr François Sénémaud.

The ceremony began with a speech by the Ambassador, followed by a speech by Mr Olivier Edelin (the trainer and teacher behind the project at our school, who was unable to attend), read by Mr Hua, and a speech written and read by Mr Hua.

The Ambassador and Mr Mattus presented the diplomas to the pupils. The ceremony was followed by a cocktail offered by the Embassy.

Once again, the school warmly congratulates the winning pupils and thanks the French Embassy for organising this wonderful ceremony.
