On 18 July 2025, we gathered at the Copthorne King’s Hotel to honour the graduating Class of 2025. This year’s Convocation, themed Nocturne, was an evening filled with laughter, music, and the warmth of friendships forged over years of shared challenges and triumphs. 

As the graduates and guests enjoyed their dinner, the atmosphere buzzed with excitement thanks to a line-up of fun activities. The Photo Bingo encouraged scholars to mingle and snap pictures with peers who matched prompts, such as “Someone who did their OFYP in Asia” and “Someone you know the best”. Following that, we had a lucky draw that kept everyone on their toes, with exciting prizes won by the graduates. A Best Dressed contest added a splash of glamour to the evening, with the winners turning heads in stylish ensembles.

At the bartending corner, one of our very own scholars took centre stage, shaking and stirring drinks for delighted guests. The photobooth area, stocked with playful props, proved to be a hit — every click capturing a moment of joy and nostalgia. 

Entertainment for the night was nothing short of spectacular. Our year 1s kicked things off with a lively set that filled the ballroom with energy. But the true highlight came when the graduating batch took the stage for their jam band performance. Their music was more than just a performance; it was a heartfelt farewell, resonating with memories and the shared journey of the past four years. 

As the evening drew to a close, it was clear that this was not merely a celebration of achievements, but a tribute to the bonds that will continue to connect them long after they leave the programme. 

Once again, a happy graduation to the Class of 2025!
