Farewell Speech by Vedantu

A farewell is an expression of good wishes to people who are leaving an institution or place of work or residence. A farewell is organized to bid goodbye and good luck to people who are leaving. It helps in conveying a message they will be missed by those they are leaving behind. It may be a small or big arrangement, but the farewell speech if well written and delivered remains etched in the memories forever. 

 

If you are searching for emotional and beautiful written farewell speeches then below 2 speeches are given, a long farewell speech and a short farewell speech. Students can refer to both these speeches and they could be used to make your presence felt at the farewell party. 


Long Farewell Speech

Good morning everyone present here at the farewell of class 2020. I would like to say a few words on behalf of my friends. It’s been 4 years since I entered this campus. I was an introverted, shy, and not so friendly guy who just wanted to complete my studies and move on in life with goals and ambitions. Little did I know that after 4 years I would not only be a step ahead in reaching my goal but also that I would make lots of trustworthy friends and have so many memories on the campus. 


A small farewell speech is not enough to show you how grateful I am. I am grateful that I made an impact on my friend’s life and one day they would miss me as I will miss them when we graduate. On one hand, I am happy that we all have cleared all our exams and have graduated successfully but on another hand, it just breaks my heart to even think that from tomorrow onwards we won’t be able to attend those boring lectures. 


It breaks my heart to even think about the fact that from tomorrow we won’t be able to bunk a class and spend some time with our friends in the canteen. The person you see today standing on this stage sharing his experience about his college, trust me I would not believe this person existed 4 years ago. 


The character I developed was all possible because of my friends and teachers who supported and helped me whenever required. There are plenty of teachers on this campus who helped me in excelling in my academics and were always there when I needed a suggestion about something. 


For the last 4 years, every person on this campus has been a part of my journey and has played an important role in shaping me and making me into the person I am today. They helped me to build a character who is always optimistic and they were always there during difficult times. For that, I am always grateful to each one of my friends, all my teachers, and the non-teaching faculties at the campus. 


I am sure that everyone will agree with me that we all will miss the canteen. Whenever the class was bunked, the canteen was the place where a group of friends relaxed and it was the place where all the unhealthy snacks we ate and watched team India matches and rooted for their victory. I am going to miss the canteen so much. 


I would like to conclude my farewell speech by saying that I have a small message for my friends that this farewell is not the end, it cannot be the end of the memories and bonds we created with each other throughout all these years. I can surely say that life would not be easy from now on and there will be a lot of challenges that would be thrown at us in the future and all. I wanna say that I have hope in everything even when there is complete darkness.


One thing I have learned here at this campus is that even if there are a lot of difficulties in life and everything seems impossible it’s achievable when you have friends and loved ones with you. So, let us promise to not forget each other and not to deal with the hardships alone. Let us be there whenever someone needs help in the future. 


Let us promise that we will be in touch no matter what and remember that this farewell is a goodbye to our college days and can never be for our friendship,  thank you. 


Short Farewell Speech

Good morning to everyone present here to witness the farewell of class 2020. It’s my honour to give a short farewell speech about my student life. It’s with a heavy heart that I begin my speech today and I can believe that my classmates would understand how much we are going to miss this beautiful campus once we are. I graduated from here.

 

I can undoubtedly say that we are going to miss this place and as the saying goes the magic is not in the place but the people that surround it. I don’t have any regrets in my life and I am grateful for the last four years at this campus. I met beautiful people that included my friends, my teachers, and all the non-teaching staff. They all played an important role in my life and helped in shaping me into the man I am today. 


Everyone here is friendly, especially the faculty members who helped us whenever we doubted any subject which could be either academics or non-academic. On behalf of everyone, I  can proudly say that you made us into better people and helped us face all the challenges that life would throw at us in the future so.


Thank you for helping us. I would like to conclude my short farewell speech by saying that I have a small message for my friends that this farewell is not the end, it cannot be the end of the memories and bonds we created with each other throughout all these years. 


I can surely say that life would not be easy from now on and there will be a lot of challenges that would be thrown at us in the future. But let us promise to not forget each other and not to deal with the hardships alone. Let we will be there whenever someone needs help in the future.   


Let us promise that we will be in touch no matter what and remember that this farewell is a goodbye to our college days and can never be for our friendship,  thank you.

FAQs on Farewell Speech For Students

1. What to wear on farewell?

A farewell is a formal occasion whereby one goes to school to bid goodbye to the teachers and the principal who have been part of your beautiful school life since the beginning. On such an occasion, the boys can consider wearing a suit or a traditional kurta whereas the girls can go ahead with a sari or a formal western dress.

2. Is it okay to give gifts to the teachers on farewell?

Giving gifts to the teachers is a very subjective choice, however, teachers are very humble and usually refuse to accept the gifts. Moreover, as the convention says, students give something to teachers or a token of respect after the board exams are over. But one may choose to give the beloved teacher a token of love and respect as a gift. In this regard, avoid any bulk or heavy gifts.
