On Wednesday 18th June, 2025, fifty-one of our students graduated, marking the completion of a significant chapter in their lives. These young ladies have shown tremendous resilience and adaptability, especially having to adjust to online learning when the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted their early school years.
Despite the challenges, they embraced the virtual classroom — participating in online lessons, enjoying games with their teachers and classmates, engaging in dance, art and craft activities like tie-dye shirts, and much more. Through it all, they remained committed to their schoolwork, allowing each experience to shape and strengthen them.
With the unwavering support of their parents and teachers, they blossomed into more confident and capable versions of themselves. As they move forward to secondary school, we are confident they will carry with them the lessons, values, and spirit instilled in them at St. Charles (Tunapuna) Girls’ Roman Catholic School.
We wish each of them continued success. Shine bright and share your light wherever you go.
All the best, girls — and always remember, you are forever God’s chosen.
Continue to be a positive influence and a reflection of God.
Feature Speaker: Mr. J’lani De Four
We were honoured to have Mr. J’lani De Four as our Feature Speaker for the Graduation Ceremony of the Class of 2025. He engaged the students with a powerful and reflective message, beginning with a brief moment of meditation that helped center their thoughts and hearts.
Mr. De Four spoke to the graduates about the importance of seeing themselves as seeds—full of potential, purpose, and promise. He reminded them that growth requires patience, prayer, and trust in God’s perfect timing. His message encouraged the students to pray, be still, and wait on God to guide their path as they embark on the next chapter of their journey.
