After a few minutes of preparation students started with their exam, and they start with theory and in the afternoon they continued with the practical aspect. Mbarak was in the class watching the students during the examination.

In the afternoon the students continue with the second part of their exam, where Rukia and Salama start to make the certificate for printing, and Hashil signged them, as Guy was not around. Also rukia printed the CD covers and the poster of the students which was among of their work they have done.

Salama opened the graduation for welcoming the students and asked them to come and start presentation of their works, students start to present their work in alphabetical order and after finishing it, the guest of honor Mr. Hashil el hamdan rewarded the certificate to the students.

After that he gave out a small speech to the students. But also he advice the students who were waiting for a national examination result if they passed their exam and they think that, it will be better for them to continue with their studies and to stop coming zanzibits, to come and inform the teacher about their situation. Also he thanks them for the whole 4weaks that they were here.

The graduation finished with some snacks and drinks together with a group picture and we made some funny things. Like singing. It was a great day for the kids and they left at 13:00pm.
