RIYADH, 14 May 2007 — Passing out students from the Bangladesh International School (English Section) in Riyadh were told to strive for excellence.

“Your good behavior in the new seats of learning, will bring good name to our school and your parents,” Ambassador of Bangladesh S.M. Ikramul Haque told the students at a graduation ceremony in Riyadh.

Congratulating the departing students and teachers for their dedication toward their profession, Haque, who was the chief guest on the occasion, stressed the need for courage among the students to face the challenges of the modern world.

In his welcome address, Sheik Salim Ullah, chairman of the school’s board of directors, outlined the tasks undertaken by the institution to enable students to achieve the goals of education.

School Principal Mohammed Hussein recalled that last year the school produced 100 percent successful results in their final examinations.
