On Thursday, March 6, 2015, the graduation ceremony was held at Gifu Shotoku Gakuen University Junior High School. After the ceremony, the third-year students sang in a chorus. They expressed their feelings for their juniors, their sadness at leaving their alma mater, their gratitude to their teachers, and above all, their farewell to their classmates. The sight of the graduating students in tears, overcome with emotion, drew sobs from the parents' seats. It was a very moving event. "In the Spring Breeze" Lyrics and Composition: Tomoko Yamazaki A morning sky dyed in dazzling light A new journey begins now A familiar streetscape A gentle breeze gently embraces the changing times A spring day with blooming cherry blossoms A summer day with lush greenery The seasons flow by Forever and forever I want to tell you "Thank you" All the feelings overflowing from my heart, from my heart Now I wave to you and start walking Holding a small dream in my outstretched hand I walk down the road that leads to tomorrow
