Grade 8 Valedictorian Graduation Speech Rowan Elsmore 2019

This is my grade 8 Inspirational Valedictorian Speech. I'm going to miss this school.
Good afternoon peers, teachers and parents. For all of us here, today may seem like the end of a story; a conclusion to the 10 years of work we've put in here at elementary school. However, I see today as the end of a chapter. There's still so much to look forward to, but before we turn the page, let's take a look back on the last 10 years of our lives.

You know you are anxious when you are trying to write a speech for your graduation and you are already getting anxious just listening to one.

Unbelievable how a 14 year old boy can hold a speech as good as a experienced speaker!! Great Job!

hey Rowan, my name is Liam and I am a Canadian gr. 8 grad student that can no longer attend a proper graduation due to quarantine, yet we are attempting to hold one and social distance. Your speech and channel really inspire me as a person in these times, and I hope you are doing well. Hopefully this better's your day because you deserve it more than anyone else.

I'm currently writing my valedictorian speech. I've watched this video countless times by now, and I can't help but think how well you prepared this!

[rando_person]

I'm so stressed writing my speech but this here helped me insanely!

[RCodyWanner]

Great work man - absolutely crushed it. Excited for all that is to come in your life!

Short, sweet, solid. Public speaking is hard but you make it look easy :)

This is amazing, the amount of stage presence you have is incredible. I’m trying to get grade 8 valedictorian at my school and my candidate speech is stumping me, this has been a lot of inspiration and you are incredibly talented Rowan! ❤️

This speech just hit different from every other speech I've seen. I have to write a speech for graduation in 3 days, and the teachers are going to to select the best speech. The only thing is I don't know what to do for a hook. Your speech is amazing!

[taramackay]

Beautiful speech, Rowan! I'm very proud of what you've accomplished and excited to see what lies in your future!

[marjorielopez]

I'm one of the candidates to be a valedictorian. This speech is what I'm hoping to achieve in the end. I can't even begin to comprehend how you maintained eye contact, a steady voice, and didn't seem even half nervous. I might not get chosen, but at least I got to be graced with this inspirational, wonderful speech:)
