Speech on Cultural Programme

Cultural programmes are vibrant celebrations of art, tradition, and community. They offer a peek into the diverse cultures that make our world so colorful.

You might have seen or been part of such events. They bring joy, foster unity, and promote a deeper understanding of our shared heritage.

1-minute Speech on Cultural Programme

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, today we are here to celebrate a very special event – our Cultural Programme. This is not just a gathering. It’s a festival of colors, music, dance, art, and most importantly, our shared heritage.

In this first part, let’s talk about the importance of cultural programmes. They are not just for fun. They are a way for us to learn about different cultures. We get to see the beautiful clothes, hear the unique music, taste the delicious food, and witness the amazing dances of different cultures. It’s like taking a trip around the world without leaving our seats!

Next, let’s think about how these cultural programmes bring us together. We are all different. We come from different places, we have different beliefs, and we have different ways of doing things. But when we come together to celebrate our cultures, we see that our differences are what make us special. They are what make us unique. And in this uniqueness, we find unity.

Finally, let’s not forget the role of cultural programmes in education. They are not just for entertainment. They are a chance for us to learn. We learn about history, about traditions, about values. We learn about respect, about tolerance, about acceptance. We learn that despite our differences, we are all human. We are all equal.

So, let’s celebrate. Let’s celebrate our cultures. Let’s celebrate our differences. Let’s celebrate our unity. And let’s celebrate our humanity. Because that’s what cultural programmes are all about. Thank you.

2-minute Speech on Cultural Programme

Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls,

Culture is like the air we breathe. It is everywhere, surrounding us, shaping us, and filling our lives with color, joy, and meaning. Today, we are here to celebrate the power and beauty of culture through our cultural programme.

Firstly, let’s talk about what a cultural programme means. It’s like a big, colorful painting. Each stroke of the brush represents a different tradition, a different story, a different way of life. When all these strokes come together, they create a beautiful picture that tells us who we are and where we come from. A cultural programme is a stage where we display this painting for everyone to see and appreciate.

Secondly, a cultural programme is a bridge. It connects us to our roots and helps us understand our history. It is a journey back in time where we meet our ancestors, learn about their lives, their struggles, and their triumphs. Through this journey, we learn to appreciate the richness of our heritage and understand the value of preserving it for future generations.

Thirdly, a cultural programme is a mirror. It reflects the diversity of our society. It shows us that even though we may speak different languages, wear different clothes, or eat different foods, we are all part of the same human family. It teaches us to respect and celebrate our differences, not fear or fight them.

Fourthly, a cultural programme is a seed. It plants in us the love for art, music, dance, drama, and literature. It nurtures our creativity, encourages us to express ourselves, and helps us grow as individuals. It shows us that culture is not just something we inherit, but also something we create and contribute to.

Finally, a cultural programme is a party. It is a time for us to come together, to share, to laugh, to dance, to sing, and to enjoy. It is a time for us to take a break from our busy lives and to celebrate the simple joys of being human.

In conclusion, a cultural programme is not just an event. It is a celebration of who we are, a tribute to where we come from, a testament to our diversity, a catalyst for our creativity, and a symbol of our unity. So, let’s embrace it, enjoy it, and most importantly, learn from it. Because, at the end of the day, culture is not just about the past, it’s also about the future. It’s not just about me or you, it’s about all of us, together.

The welcome speech template

To be effective your welcome speech needs to meet expected, as well as any specific, requirements dictated by the occasion.

The 6 standard welcome speech content ingredients

There are six common or standard content items in a good welcome speech.

• Greetings to welcome everyone and thanking them for coming along.
• Acknowledgement of special guests, if there are any.
• An introduction of the event itself and a brief overview of special highlights the audience will want to know about.
• Any important housekeeping information, for instance: where the bathrooms are, where lunch will be served and when...
• An introduction for the next speaker, if there is one.
• Thanking everyone for coming once more and then concluding having made everybody feel at ease, eagerly anticipating what is to come.

Numbers 1, 3, and 6 are basic essentials you cannot do without. Numbers 2, 4 and 5 may, or may not, be applicable. Pick what you need from them to fit your occasion.

Short sample welcome speech for a conference 

Now let's put all six ingredients into an example of a short welcome speech to open a conference that you can adapt for your own speech.

* (This speech is pure fiction! I made it up to show you how it's done. You'll see its tone is formal rather than informal to fit the occasion. I don't think there is a group called Parents United. However, there are others with a similar mission: 10 Inspiring Organizations that Promote Literacy and Education .)  

Example welcome speech - "Readers by Right"

"Sue-Ellen Thomas, Jim Smith, Jane Brown and all of our guests, good morning!

My name is April Molloy, and it's my privilege and great pleasure on behalf of Parents United to welcome you all here today.

We are delighted to have you with us to participate and share in this special occasion, our 5th annual Children's Day Conference. Thank you for coming. That many of you have willingly traveled long distances to be here serves as a reminder to us all just how important our work is.

Parents United is committed to actively raising the quality of life for every child. We want all children, regardless of race, creed or circumstance to achieve their full potential. Our task is to make it possible. Our mission is to provide practical, step by step assistance.

This year our theme is literacy. We've named the day 'Readers by Right'.

Thanks to the 1948 United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights, we are aware of 'rights' in many spheres, including education.  Article 26 declared it should be compulsory and free for children.

That goal is as pertinent today as it was then. And it's a goal I know we all share - the full development of every child. As a body, Parents United recognizes good reading skills established in childhood as the foundation of fulfilling, and ongoing education.

We are honored to have Sue-Ellen Thomas, Jim Smith and Jane Brown with us today. All three are esteemed specialists in teaching young children to read.

Sue-Ellen has worked for a long time with educational authorities to establish programs putting in place necessary pre-reading skills. Her hard work needs no introduction. The results speak for themselves.

Jim and Jane bring their passion, and knowledge of how to reach those in our communities who are frequently overlooked or bypassed. Their work among disadvantaged English-as-a-second-language families has bridged gaps that were deep dark chasms.

Prepare yourself to be challenged, excited and inspired.

And before I handover to Lesley Watts, our coordinator for 'Readers by Right', who will outline the day's various events, I want to say once more on behalf of the Parents United organizing committee, welcome. It's wonderful to see so many of you here." 

Get your welcome speech started

To shortcut wondering, "Should I say this?" or "Maybe I should say that?" and "Then again there's also ...", I have a very simple solution for you.

Get yourself a printable welcome speech planner

Download and print my  special greeting address planner .

It covers ALL the necessary ingredients that go into preparing a successful welcome speech. It's simple to use and easily filled out. Once it's done, writing your speech will be a lot less hassle as you'll have the core content ready to work with.

Writing your welcome speech

Tips to help you get your speech right.

When you're entering information into your speech planner:

• ensure you've got all the names of individuals or special guests you need to mention specifically and, that you know how to pronounce each of them. Also check that you know and use their preferred pronouns: them/they, she/her, he/him...
• double check the remarks you're going to make about them, or anything else, are factually correct.

Use your introduction of your guests/or the event, as a "teaser" for what is going to come. It will help create anticipation in the audience. Don't ruin it by giving too much away! Just enough to tempt and no more.

Keep it brief. One to two minutes is generally sufficient.

(The word count of my sample welcome speech is 357. It will take approximately 2 minutes to say .) 

Use the S-S-S formula for success: Short, Simple and Sincere. Your listeners will appreciate it.

Get a hand with vocabulary

If you're stuck for words, here's a large selection of  adaptable welcoming phrases with example s entences.  Reading through them could help you to find exactly what you want.

What does a good welcome speech do?

An effective welcome speech has three important functions. It:

• signals the official beginning of an event . It says to the audience, hush, sit down, stop talking and listen. What you came for is starting!
• sets the tone for the occasion through the choice of language used . For example, using light-hearted and informal words to welcome guests to a dear friend's birthday party may be completely appropriate.  However, the same type of language to welcome family and friends to a memorial service is unlikely to be. In that setting, people generally expect a more solemn and formal word choice. They could be deeply offended and think the use of casual language is disrespectful.  Understanding and getting tone right is a key element in the overall success of your welcome speech.  
• unites the audience . It draws everyone together in the common purpose at the heart of the occasion. For example, at a birthday party, the welcome speech invites everyone to join in celebrating the person whose birthday it is. The welcome speech opening a specialist conference will affirm its principal purpose: the coming together of people with mutual interests to meet and share new knowledge. Or if a welcome speech is given to newcomers in a workplace, club or educational setting, its purpose is to give an introductory overview of how things work to help them feel more at ease in their new situation - to help them develop a sense of belonging.

Getting the tone right for an event

What is tone.

Tone is the combined impact of the words chosen to express something, with how they are structured and, delivered.  All three elements come together to create tone * . 

Get tone wrong, and your welcome speech is a disaster.

Get it right, and it's a triumph!

(Yes, that's hyperbole but I'm sure you get the idea. ☺)

* Tone - a mood, quality or feeling

How to choose the right words

The beginning of getting tone right is to think about your audience and the event itself. Your goal is to unite and bring them together in the main purpose at the core of the occasion. What type of language will do that most appropriately and easily?

To answer that question, think about the common interest everybody shares - the principal reason behind them getting together.  It will help guide your language choice.

Is it a fun event like a birthday party for close friends and family? If so, then informal language is likely to be the most apt.

You might hear something along the lines of: "Well, here we all are! The big day has finally arrived. Jean-Marie is 50! Half a century! How on earth did that happen?"

If it's a remembrance service for someone who has recently died, the language you're likely to hear is more formal.

For example: "Friends, family, colleagues, thank you for joining us today to celebrate and give thanks for our dear Jean-Marie. Your presence is gratefully appreciated." 

What is appropriate? What is expected?  Do spend some time thinking tone through. Misunderstanding and getting it wrong can be very embarrassing for everyone. If in doubt, ask someone whose opinion you trust.

Good morning/ evening/ afternoon to our respected principal sir/ ma’am (their name), our teachers, students, non-teaching staff, and our audience present here. Culture is our identity. We dwell in a country where there is no one specific culture, but India is a combination of several of them. India prioritizes all assimilating into itself, unlike other countries that have only one single culture.

We have today gathered for a celebration of Rabindra Jayanti, but what we must remember is that this man himself was a multi-cultural personality. His poems, stories, songs, and literary works have embraced the world’s culture. His Gitanjali has been translated into different languages, where this work of the Noble Laureate has fetched him tremendous respect in both India and abroad.

The Gitanjali is a manifesto of worldly views that assimilates with other cultures and religions as well. Tell me an occasion where you will not find a Tagore song or a poet to suit your temper. It is impossible. He defines what being a Bengali feels like. He defines our culture that is strong, relentless, embracing, which is romantic, pure, happy, and passionate.

When we call for a cultural day we mean to celebrate and propagate a culture that the finest of the Tagores would inspire us to be. So without any further ado, let’s begin our journey  We will start today with an inauguration song composed by our teachers. I will request our music faculty (teachers’ names) to come upon the stage and start our journey today. 

It was such a melodious beginning. I will heartily thank all our faculty for this beautiful stage today/ this evening. W.B. Yeats writes in the introduction to the Gitanjali how deeply affecting is the composition of text, even in its translation, it becomes so majestic and beautiful. On asked who is Rabindranath a doctor who is supposed to be a Bengali says that he is a physician to many a tormenting soul. He is the aesthetic need of humans. When they sang this song, it really touched the deepest abyss of my mind. Tagore is bliss. 

Now we will move on with our program today. We have many more at our disposal. But before that, I will request our respected principal sir/ mam (his/ her name) to share some words regarding how global is Tagore as a cultural phenomenon in our country and Bengal. Sir/ ma’am the stage is all yours.

What sir/ ma’am has rightly pointed out is that Tagore is for all of us. In every situation in our lives, we find his poems and songs so relevant to us. Every word is topical as if he has thought of today and composed his creations. They are ecstatic and beautiful. For every Bengali, his poems and songs, and short stories are of premium significance. If you still see a group of people having fun and gossiping, at least one of them will be humming a Rabindra sangeet. He is predominant and significant in that way and in the next century also and many more after that he will be the most discussed legend.

Now, moving on with our program. We now have our students in classes 9 and 10, who have prepared their self-choreographed dance performances to showcase how Tgaore implies the theory of Nava rasa in his literature as well. 

Thank you so much sir/ ma’am for your time. I will request you take your seat and enjoy the rest of our performances today. As we all know any culture is best exhibited through its dance performances. Dance tells us a story recreated through serene body movements and hand gestures. Tagore has always employed a greater part of his stories in dance dramas. Without dance, any composition of Tagre is incomplete. So now the kids of our society will come upon the stage and present some of their beautiful dances, showcasing the childhood stories of Tagore. 

Thank you so many students for this amazing performance. I simply forgot that you all were performing for more than twenty minutes straight, showcasing several aspects of Nava Rasa and how Tagore has implemented it in his literature and songs. Also, the gracious movements just perfectly balanced the attire you all were dressed up in. I would like a round of applause for our dance choreographers and also our costume and makeup designers who have created this wonderful performance.

It is always a great source of pleasure to see our little children perform so beautifully. What is most amazing is how at such a little age they have acquired the entire performance so beautifully and without any mistake. They danced as f I saw many adept future dancers of our society. It was so amazing. Thank you so much (name of the choreographers) for creating this beautiful group of budding talents.

We will now move on to our next performance. Our dear student (his/her name) has prepared a beautiful recitation of Tagore’s one of the most famous poems (name of the poem). Let’s have a big round of applause for her. The stage is all yours (his/her name)

After the Recitation Performance

While he /she was reciting the poem one specific line greatly caught my attention. Almost immediately I was reminded how Tagore, besides being a man of innumerable knowledge, is also a person who has received severe pains of death throughout his life. At quite a young age he has lost his two biggest supports, his mother and his sister-in-law or beloved Bouthan, who actually was his Muse.

Even he had witnessed the deaths of his spouse and his dear children. I felt how terrific and pathetic has been for the human Tagore and not the Noble Laureate. So while we celebrate today, I believe we should celebrate his pains and anxieties that have been moulded in his artistic creations.

Thank you so much (his / her name), that was so lovely. Your voice is so deep and so beautifully adjusted with every pronunciation you made. Let me tell you all in fact, that he/she is a national-level champion in recital performances and has been mentored by one of the best tutors in our state. Once again, a big round of applause for him/her.

For Rabindra Jayanti, lots of students have participated in our online drawing, singing, and dancing competitions. For more than two months the entire submission and selection process of students has taken place. But let me tell you all it was extremely difficult to choose three students from each category since all of you who have participated in this are worthy of prizes.

All of you deserve equal blessings and applause. But it is a rule to choose only a few and crown them. So I will now request our Principal sir/ ma’am to come upon the stage and declare the names of the winners. At first, it will be the drawing competition, then dance, and then music. Sir/ ma’am, please come upon the stage.

Thank you so much, sir/ ma’am. I wish all of the winners a great future ahead. Now we will move on with the final performance of today, a presentation of the excerpt from Tagore’s one of the most famous dramas Achalayatan. Before I leave the stage, let me tell you all a bit about this drama. It is principally based on the conservative mode of school studies and how bounded the system is.

Tagore himself never preferred institutional studies where the min was not free. This drama is an exact representation of such a system, where Pancham plays the role of that free-spirited narrator himself. I will now leave the stage to let our designers prepare it. The students participating in this drama are (their names with respective characters played)

It has become really difficult for me to say anything after watching such a terrific performance. I was just left spellbound. The dialogues are already the creations of a master composer, it is so lyrical like poetry, with such a strong message within it, along with all its humour balanced. But what actually manifested the entire setting and concept of Tagore is the performance of our students.

How beautifully they managed themselves. How well they created that voice and jargon so neatly. I believe there is no one here who is not impressed by your performance. A big round of applause for our performers, directors, costume and stage designers, lights, and technicians.

We have finally arrived at the end of today’s program. It is really hard to leave it otherwise this ambience has been so beautifully created. So to keep the last taste of this day, let us hear our last song today prepared by our music teachers. 

Thank you so much to everyone who participated today. It is always a joy to see such an enthusiastic crowd and students making every year a success. I heartily thank you all. On this note, have a good day/ good night. 

Note: It is a sample anchoring script from which you can get a basic idea about the very topic. You can edit this script according to your requirement and wish. If you have any queries about this session, kindly let me know through the comment section below. Thank you for being with us.

Are you on welcome speech duty for an upcoming program or event? You’ve got nothing to worry about—with the right format and tone, it’s super easy to write and present a welcome speech for just about any occasion. We’ve outlined everything you need to know, from your opening greetings and acknowledgments, to establishing the right tone and nailing your closing remarks. You’ve got this in the bag!

Greeting the Audience

• Keep the tone more serious if it's an important occasion. Use more formal language and don't crack any inappropriate jokes. For example, at a wake, you might say, "We're so glad to have you all here tonight. We appreciate your presence at this difficult time."

• For an event with close friends and family, more informal language might be appropriate. Include a few jokes and keep your speech more lighthearted.

Grab your audience's attention with a strong opening. Start with a loud voice and a strong presence that welcomes everyone and gets them involved. Ask a question they can respond to or tell a joke — anything to connect with the audience. Do something that grabs their attention and excites them and makes them thrilled about the event.

• Special guests include any people of honor, those that may play a particularly important part in the event, or those who have traveled a long way to be there.
• Make sure that you practice all of names, titles, and pronunciations of the special guests before your speech.
• For example you could say, "We'd like to extend a special welcome to our guest of honor, Judge McHenry, who will be speaking later tonight."
• Alternatively to welcome a group of people you might say, "While we're excited to have you all here tonight, we'd especially like to say welcome to the students from Johnson Middle School."

• For an informal event such as a birthday party, you could say, "We're so happy to have you here tonight to eat, drink, and celebrate another year of Jessica's life. Now, let's get to it."
• For a more formal event such as one run by an organisation, you could say, “We are so excited to have you all here to participate in our 10th annual pet’s day, organised by the Animal Rescue Group.”

Forming the Body of the Speech

• An example of acknowledging individual people is saying, “We couldn’t have pulled off this fundraiser without the hard work and dedication of Grace and Sally, who worked tirelessly from day 1 to make today a reality.”
• Avoid reading off a long list of people or sponsors, as your audience will begin to get bored. Stick to just a handful of highlights.

• For instance, at a conference, you might point out when the dinner will be held, or where particular sessions will take place.
• At a wedding reception, you might note when dancing will start or when the cake will be served.

• Alternatively, you could end the body of your speech during an informal gathering by saying, “I can't wait to see you all out on the dancefloor!”

Ending the Speech

• You could also say that you hope that the audience takes something away from the event. For example, “I hope that today inspires ideas and discussions around the ways that we can make our city a better place!”

• At a formal event, you might say, "Now, for our speaker. Rebecca Roberts comes here from Montreal, Canada, and she is a leading expert in the study of the human brain. She'll be speaking tonight on what drives humans to make decisions. Let's welcome her."
• For a more informal event such as a party, you could say, “Next up is Sam, who has been Kyle’s best friend for 10 years strong. He has a decade of embarrassing stories about Kyle to share with us tonight!"

• Alternatively you might say, “Thank you again to everyone for being here tonight to celebrate Joe and Kathleen’s 50th wedding anniversary! Let the celebrations begin!”

• If you are unsure, ask the organiser or host what an appropriate length of time for your speech will be.

About This Article

To write a welcome speech, start with a greeting to your audience that’s appropriate to the situation. For example, you could try “Good evening ladies and gentlemen” if you’re introducing a formal event, or “Thank you everyone for coming on this sunny day” for a more relaxed occasion. After you’ve finished the greeting, introduce the event by talking about who organized it and what its purpose is. In the main body of your speech, acknowledge 2 or 3 people who played important parts in organizing the event. You should also emphasize special parts of the event that people should pay attention to, such as where dinner will be or where a conference session will take place. When you’re ready to conclude your speech, tell the audience to enjoy the event by saying something like “I hope you all enjoy the exciting speakers to come.” Finish your speech by thanking the audience for attending.

Anchoring Script: Annual Function

An annual function is a significant event for any organization, school, or college, marking the culmination of a year’s worth of efforts, achievements, and experiences. As an anchor, your role is to ensure the event flows smoothly, engaging the audience and creating a memorable experience. Crafting an effective anchoring script is essential for this purpose. It serves as a roadmap for the event, keeping the audience informed and entertained while transitioning seamlessly between different segments of the program. In this article, we’ll explore the steps to write an anchoring script that will elevate your annual function.

Table of Contents

Understanding the Role of an Anchor

Before diving into scriptwriting, it’s important to understand the role of an anchor . You are the face of the event – a bridge between the audience and the performers or speakers. Your energy, enthusiasm, and articulation set the tone for the entire event. A good anchor keeps the audience engaged, maintains the event’s pace, and handles unexpected situations with grace.

Step 1: Know the Event Inside Out

Begin by gathering all the details about the annual function. Meet with the event organizers to understand the event’s objective, theme, and schedule. Familiarize yourself with the sequence of performances or presentations, the names and designations of VIPs, chief guests, and participants. Understanding the audience demographic is also crucial to tailor your script accordingly.

Step 2: Outline the Program Flow

Once you have all the information, create a detailed outline of the event. The outline should include:

• Opening ceremony
• Welcome speech
• Cultural programs
• Awards and recognitions
• Speeches by dignitaries
• Closing ceremony

An outline helps you to visualize the event’s flow and provides a structure to build your script around.

Step 3: Craft a Captivating Introduction

The introduction is your chance to make a great first impression. Start with a warm welcome , a brief description of the event, and express gratitude to the audience for their presence. You may include a quote or a short poem related to the event’s theme to capture the audience’s attention and set a positive tone.

Step 4: Write Transitions for Different Segments

Your script should include smooth transitions between different parts of the program. Transitions are crucial as they keep the momentum going and maintain the audience’s interest. Acknowledge the previous performance or speaker, provide a brief introduction for the next segment, and if needed, add a touch of humor or a relevant anecdote to keep things lively.

Step 5: Include Audience Engagement

Engaging with the audience is key to a successful anchoring. Plan for interactive segments, such as trivia questions related to the event’s theme, audience polls, or shout-outs. These activities can keep the energy high and make the audience feel like an integral part of the event.

Step 6: Prepare Introductions for Performers and Speakers

Every performer and speaker deserves a proper introduction. Research and write a brief yet informative introduction for each. Highlight their achievements or relevance to the event, and make sure to get the pronunciation of names correct to show respect and professionalism.

Step 7: Script the Acknowledgments

Acknowledgments are an essential part of any event. Make sure to thank the chief guests, dignitaries, event organizers, participants, and the audience. Mention any sponsors or special contributors, and express gratitude for their support.

Step 8: Add Quotes and Literary Touches

Sprinkle your script with appropriate quotes, literary references, or sayings that resonate with the theme of the annual function. These can provide depth to your narrative and help in emphasizing the event’s significance.

Step 9: Conclude with a Call to Action or Positive Note

The conclusion of your script should wrap up the event on a positive note. Whether it’s a call to action, like inviting the audience to a follow-up event, or simply wishing them well, the closing words should be memorable and impactful.

Step 10: Rehearse and Refine

Practicing your script is as important as writing it. Rehearse multiple times to get comfortable with the flow and content. As you practice, you might find areas that need refining for clarity or timing. Adjust your script accordingly, and be prepared to improvise if needed during the event.

Annual Function Anchoring Script Tips

Start with a strong opening:  The opening of your anchoring script should capture the attention of your audience and set the tone for the rest of the performance. You can start with a quote, a joke , or a powerful statement that sets the stage for the performances to come.

Know your audience:  It’s important to know your audience and cater your anchoring script to their interests and preferences. If you’re hosting a dance performance for a more formal audience, you may want to use more formal language and tone. If your audience is younger or more casual, you may want to use more relaxed and informal language.

Keep it concise:  Your anchoring script should be concise and to the point. Avoid rambling or going off on tangents. Keep your sentences short and simple, and make sure your script flows smoothly from one performance to the next.

Use descriptive language:  Use descriptive language to help your audience visualize the performances. Use adjectives to describe the mood, tone, and style of each performance, and use action verbs to describe the movements of the dancers.

Be prepared:  Make sure you’re prepared with all the necessary information about the performances, including the names of the performers, the titles of the performances, and any other important details. Practice your script beforehand to ensure that you’re comfortable with the language and tone.

End with a strong closing:  Your closing should leave a lasting impression on your audience. You can end with a final thought, a quote, or a thank you message to the performers and the audience.

Good morning, I extend a warm welcome to all those gathered here today, including our esteemed teachers, parents, and students. I’d like to express our gratitude to our Chief Guest, XYZ, for joining us. We feel privileged to have such a successful writer and businessperson in our midst.

Before we kick start today’s program, I – Abhinav Sharma – the assistant manager of ABC Group in our company and your host for today would like to welcome each and every one of you to this special event. I am extremely pleased to welcome those who have been serving our company for a long time and those as well who have recently joined.

This day, as I am sure most of you would know, marks the 11 th annual group meeting and it is a proud moment for all of us that our company could host this meeting at this spectacular place with all of us.

Secondly, I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to all my colleagues who were always more than ready to lend their support in making this event a success. It is not possible to take the names of all, so I want to thank everyone who contributed in some or the other way towards this event. It wouldn’t have been possible without the support of you all.

In today’s event, our focus would be all those new volunteers who have recently joined us. Do you know why you all have been appointed by your respective managers? Of course, it’s because you displayed mutual passion and a spirit to work for a company in close association with everyone. Your passion for work helps us to come together and unite the energy that we have in order to realize our goals at both personal and professional levels. Everyone needs everyone here to be able to work towards the growth of the company and that’s why it calls for a celebration that we could have all the like-minded people under one roof.

In the coming months, you will be taught different initiatives with the help of planned seminars, activities, and special events where you (the new volunteers) will be invited and given hands-on expertise. I hope this chain of events will help you grow and become more productive as well as smarter than your present capacity.

I hope I am not taking too much of your time and now without any further ado, I would like to call on stage my manager to let you know about our upcoming projects/activities. Please be ensured that today will be a lot of fun and packed with learning.

Besides, any one of you can come on stage and join me to share your valued suggestions and ideas, including sharing your doubts, questions, etc. Also, you all are requested to collect your food coupons after 12 and before 1 in order to avoid any hassles afterward.

To our Hon’ble Directors, Principal, Vice Principal, Colleagues, and Our Lovely Students – Warm Greetings to all of you!

Welcome to the 21 st annual award event in our XYZ School. I – Mrs. Payal Singh, the English Teacher of the higher secondary classes, feel extremely privileged to have been given the opportunity to kick start today’s prestigious award ceremony. This day couldn’t have been more special as our chief guest, Mr. ……….. – The famous author of fiction is amongst us to grace the event.

As we all know that this award ceremony is conducted every year to acknowledge and appreciate the hard work, sincerity, and dedication of our working staff as well as students. Clearly, the growth of this school wouldn’t have been possible without the proactive efforts of our administration as well as our highly educated as well as experienced faculty members. Of course, the dedicated efforts of our principal as well as vice principal top it all as since the time of their appointment we can witness a steady growth of our school. We have now become known everywhere and our school is now well-equipped with every necessary infrastructure as well as facilities required for the smooth running of our school.

There is greater contentment in all our working staff and the enthusiasm among our students is higher. Our students are now getting exposed to more and more opportunities whether it’s in academics or other co-curricular activities. In state and national level competitions, we are observing a rising level of our students which is getting reflected in their performances. As a result of which they are able to bag more awards for themselves as well as our school.

However, today we have gathered to acknowledge this year’s achievement of our students and our teachers. This year has been very special for all of us in terms of academic and non-academic achievements. Even more special is the fact our school got listed amongst the top 5 schools of ……..

I am sure everyone enjoyed your speech as much as I did. Now, may we please call on stage our ma’am to address our students and their parents on this auspicious day?

It was very nice listening to our principal ma’am and she always wins our hearts through her motivating stories and the warmth that she expresses. Now friends, as the ritual goes for our annual college fest, we will first have all our cultural programs followed by the award ceremony and lunch. So brace yourself to the seats and get ready for unlimited fun.

We also have participants from other colleges and I want to specially welcome them and thank them on behalf of our college for coming here in order to showcase their talent. I am sure this is further going to raise the entertainment quotient and will give us unlimited fun. There are going to be 12 performances in total, some of them are dance performances – both classical and western, some singing performances, some will include instrument playing and some would be the dramatic enactment. All the students have worked with a lot of dedication and sincerity so that they can shine through in their performances and make their college proud.

Other than these cultural programs, there would also be a special session dedicated to underprivileged children as well as children with special needs. In this session, our principal ma’am would enlighten all of us about the association which is actively working for these children and how our college is contributing towards this noble cause. So everyone is requested to attend the session and make their contribution in whatever manner they could. This is all I want to say!

Now here I rest my speech and call upon the stage the very first group of performers, i.e. Aarohi Group! Please welcome them with a huge round of applause.

Welcome Speech for an Event – Speech 4

Good Evening Ladies and Gentlemen – I warmly welcome everyone to my yet another fashion event!

I, Neeta Sehgal – have been a fashion designer for 7 years; co-partnered with ABC Group, feel extremely glad to have you all here. My happiness in fact knows no bound today at seeing the success of my brand as well as my partners at the ABC Group. I owe my success to all my clients who have helped me reach where I am today and this is the reason why my brand has become a name in the industry. Secondly, I would also like to give credit to my partners who have always given me fair opportunities to grow and showcase my talent. They have given me the platform to perform and reach out to a worldwide audience which otherwise would have taken me years and years in building such a client base.

I sincerely hope that I continue to be a solid support to my partner company as well as serve my clients by delivering 100 percent client satisfaction. It is very important to remain consistent in our performance and continue raising benchmarks in order to excel in our own personal capacities otherwise it would result in stagnation, and stagnancy is very detrimental to growth.

Now friends, before I take you to my newly furnished store which houses some of my fresh spring and summer collections, I would like to deliver a short Fashion speech on the importance of fashion and why it is so important in our lives. What comes to your mind, when I say the very word – “Fashion”! Fashion according to me instantly brings to mind a pop of colors with a dash of glamour.

I am sure every single person has got that innate desire to look good and be accepted in his/her respective social group. Fashion differs from person to person – for some fashion means simplicity, for some it means a dash of class, style and glamour and for some it simply means comfort.

Of course, when it comes to women – fashion constantly evolves and they are in fact the lead runner in this entire game as they constantly experiment with different styles, looks and textures. Fashion plays a crucial role in an individual’s life as it is meant to be a medium of self-expression. Isn’t it!? The attires and accessories which men and women don help them shape their personalities and to get identified with a group – in terms of lifestyle, religion, profession as well as attitude. Therefore, the very term ‘fashion’ is equated with the overall development of a nation as well.

Various factors help in the growth of fashion as a whole. It is a widely accepted phenomenon that the elite and famous class, the royalty as well as political figures dominate the fashion industry in a big way by becoming the trend setters. Next comes the advertising media, which contributes effectively in informing us about the daily style updates. Therefore, all these things combined help us in designing such outfits which garner appreciation and rewards.

On this note everyone, I would like to rest my speech and would like to take you through the store and take note of your valuable suggestions.

One of the most important things to remember when making welcome speeches is the fact that this is your way of captivating your audiences. This may depend on how well you deliver the speech to draw your audience in to listen. Another thing to remember is that a welcome speech should not be too long or too short. Not too short to forget to mention your guests, nor too long that it drags on.

Tips to Write Short Welcome Speeches

As we all know, welcome speeches can either turn boring or fun, depending on how they are prepared. Nobody wants to hear a speech that is too boring or too long. So to avoid issues like that, here are some tips to write short welcome speeches, followed by tips to present your short welcome speeches.

Tips for writing short welcome speeches

• Prepare – start by simply preparing. The question here is to prepare what. Start by thinking about what you want to write. What event are you attending that needs a short introduction?
• Draft – the next thing you should do is to make a draft of your welcome speech. Start with the important details. For example, if you are attending a church event , remember to write the names of the important people. If you are attending a graduation event, the honored guests’ names must be written as well.
• Choice of Words – Pick your words carefully when writing a short welcome speech. Add some lively details to it but also keep it simple. You are only welcoming people and thanking them for coming . The welcome speech is not used as the main course, but merely an appetizer to the whole event.
• Revise – After you have written it down, check your whole speech. Make sure the details are there as well as the correct spelling and word usage.
• Tone – The tone of your writing should match the event you are attending. If it is a lively event, make it as lively as possible, if it is a depressing event, make sure it is as well.

Tips on presenting your welcome speech

• Voice – Your voice should not be too loud nor too soft. Rather, it is enough to be heard from the back.
• Practice – Practice on doing your speech before the actual event. Ask someone to give you feedback on how well you presented yourself and work from there.
• Maintain Eye Contact – remember when talking to people you must make eye contact. Let your audience feel you are happy to see them attend the event.
• Posture – How you bring yourself when making the welcome speech can say a lot of things. So it is best to stand up straight, be confident, and welcome your guests with a smile.

How many paragraphs does it take to make a short welcome speech?

Just one short paragraph. Welcome speeches are not supposed to be too long or too short. A simple 4 to 5 sentences will do, as long as the necessary details are there.

Is there a shortcut to making welcome speeches?

There is no shortcut but with practice you are able to be good at it in no time.

How do I make my short welcome speech less boring?

Watch your tone, your word usage and how you present yourself and when you read your welcome speech.

“Greetings ladies and gentlemen” this may not be much of a head turner, but it’s a start. How you present your welcome speech also matters. Being familiar with the tips on writing and the tips of giving the speech may help you in the long run. There are no shortcuts to making the best speeches, but with a lot of practice and experiences, giving welcome speeches would be a breeze.

Cultural Day speech - "The brave do not abandon their culture"

Culture is the total way of life that people in the society are blessed with. culture is the characteristics of a particular group of people, defined by everything from language, religion, cuisine, social habits, music and arts. through culture we are governed by norms and customs, which are the pillars of any society. if these […].

Culture is the total way of life that people in the society are blessed with. Culture is the characteristics of a particular group of people, defined by everything from language, religion, cuisine, social habits, music and arts. Through culture we are governed by norms and customs, which are the pillars of any society. If these pillars are not properly followed in our society, our culture will resemble a perfume with no smell. It’s a gradual existence of presenting those norms and customs to people who surround us through music, dances, arts, crafts, food, dressing style, languages just to mention a few.

Culture has been known since man came to an existence and till today we are still practicing it. Through culture we learn how to be better people in the society like living as brothers and sisters. It’s very hard for a person to live without culture because it’s like an antelope at the middle of hungry lioness. A human being is a very complex creature. Every individual human has a distinguished attitude, behaviours as well as traits. It is only through culture where human beings act uniformly and live as a society. Thus, in a simple definition of culture we all agree that culture is a totality way of life of a certain given society as they live and continue to struggle against the nature.  

Africa is believed to be the cornerstone of culture and every year, thousands of people from all over the world visit Africa to witness the beautiful culture, history and other amazing natural phenomena which Africa is blessed with and which it cherishes, for instance the earth surface features, wild animals, water bodies as well as hospitality of the people in the continent. Also, food, songs, costumes just to mention a few. Just as we are going to witness in this very day.

The way, we Africans handle our lives and whatever surrounds us; that is actually our culture, and it is through which we are identified. However, there are many different cultures from other communities and from other parts of the world, which remain to be the part of great adventure and identity to those people who live in those communities. We also recognize and appreciate their cultures. Wherever you are and wherever you live, your culture is of great value since it is the one which made you to be who you are today. Under no circumstance, a brave should not abandon his or her culture because if one abandons his or her culture, I dare to say he or she would abandon him or herself.

It is high time for us to protect all what we have in our culture and whatever is good should be taken to great heights and we should try all our level best to eliminate all those practices which are against human rights even if they have been practiced in our culture for centuries. Practices such as female genital mutilation, discrimination of any kind, torture to women and children and any kind of maltreatment to our society members. Culture is not static, it changes as the human being develops so let us not be prisoners of our own culture.

For those who have been here for four years will agree with us that we have been improving always from our first Cultural Day in 2010, 2011 and last year. The event is about commemorating our culture and other cultures beyond our boarders and beyond our continent. It must be well understood that, preserving our culture doesn’t mean to disrespect other peoples’ cultures. Cultures create and develop identities.

Today, and now, I highly call all students and staffs to try all our level best to love and feel proud of our culture. This is because it is believed that you will not know the importance of things unless they are taken away from you. Through the education that we get here at St Jude, we should enable ourselves to reach the millennium goals of fighting and eradicating poverty, diseases and ignorance which are the challenges facing the African continent. But also it will help us to reach the mission and vision of our school of preparing the future leaders of Tanzania and the world at large. Leaders who are responsible, respectful, honest, kind to all the people and our planet earth because if we destroy it, we also destroy ourselves in another way. I believe that, we are not Africans because we are only born in Africa but because Africa is born in our hearts.

Our culture is possible with our environment. The responsibility of preserving our environment is also part of our culture. William Mkufya, a famous Tanzanian writer in one of his book blamed the human being for destroying his own environment and if I may quote him, he says “The presence of modern human on earth is only a few thousand years old and yet have destroyed a huge portion of what nature has preserved for millions of years”. Ladies and gentlemen, let me take this opportunity to remind each one of us to take responsibility in preserving our environment, what exactly the  nature has preserve for millions of years as Mkufya says.  

Having said so, I believe that changes can also be brought by us, by working and cooperating with different people, even those who live beyond our shores. Through our talents, ideas and education that we get here at St Jude we can change ourselves as well as our society and other societies too. I truly believe that this young and brave generation will one day make a greater change and make the world a better place for every single person.

There are 120 tribes and so 120 languages in Tanzania ranging from Bantu Cushites to Nilotes. All these tribes have their cultures. Additionally, we are also blessed to be united by one language, Kiswahili and one country Tanzania.

Actually, there is indeed a great need of creating a balance between affirmation of the previous marginalized cultures by supporting them, and also appreciate the current dominant cultures putting forward and support their languages which are Kiswahili and other languages in our societies.

Ultimately, to make this long story short, may I call all of us with all love, kindness and sympathy to pray for Mzee Madiba who was the first president of South Africa to retain back his health and get better soon. GOD hears our voices, and we hope that Nelson Mandela will get well thus we say “Get well soon tata.”

God bless Africa, God bless Tanzania, and God bless St Jude.

Remember, “Jasiri haachi asili,” The brave do not abandon their culture.

 Prepared by Eric, Enock and Hosiana – Form 5 students at St Jude’s

This is the final official ceremony that we will ever attend in our prestigious school/college (mention the name). The ceremony will last until (mention time), after which our guests will give a message to the students. Our students will also have the opportunity to ask questions and converse with our speaker during a question-and-answer session. Tea and snacks will be offered at the end. Please stay until the end of the session to show your support for our participants.

Our Honourable Principal will address the gathering tonight. I'm confident that their speech will not just be a collection of words but a strong motivational speech. 

For all of the freshmen attending the college this year, I would like to inform you that our college toasts its annual celebration with great excitement and festivities every year, creating amazing memories. Of course, preparing for this big day takes a lot of time and effort because it cannot be achieved overnight. It requires meticulous scrutiny of every element, as even the tiniest oversight might derail the entire endeavour. So please give a huge round of applause to all the organisers!

Let us applaud the efforts of all the contestants who have worked hard in order to shine in their performance. We were quite lucky in having the support of all parties, not just for the participants, but also for the backstage crew.

For today's celebration, a variety of performances have been scheduled. We have Dance performances, singing, and playing instruments, and a variety of other activities like quizzes and other competitions. So everyone! Get ready for some incredible performances from our students, and trust me when I say that you will not be able to take your gaze away from them.

After completing the first round of performances, there will be an awards event recognising the talents and efforts of our college students who competed at various zonal, state, and national level events. 

There are no free lunches in the world. Just because you studied here doesn’t mean you are entitled to all the opportunities. You must remember to work hard and earn every opportunity you want. Take every challenge you face as an opportunity for another chance to prove your worth. Also, know the difference between people to whom you have to prove yourself and those you don’t have to. Always remember to have a sense of humour in life. Only that will get you through the tough times. Life is truly special and with patience and hard work, you will certainly make responsible decisions for yourself, your family and for your country as well.  Take accountability for your failures and learn from them. Don’t let anything bring you down. Stay as passionate and driven as you are today. Keep achieving and reach great heights with flying colours.

That is all from me, friends! I thank you all for your patience. I'll meet you after the event. I hope you relax and enjoy the evening.

Short Speech

This form of welcome speech for an event is helpful when the presenter wishes to keep it simple, short and effective without diverting focus from the main event. 

Good Morning everyone! A warm welcome to respected teachers, parents and students. A special thanks to the Chief Guest of the day (mention his/her name). It's an honour to have such an accomplished author and entrepreneur among us. Thank you (sir/ ma’am/ mx) for accepting the invitation to deliver the keynote speech today and for guiding our students for new beginnings. 

Your teachers have guided you in all your endeavours and your parents have constantly supported you through it. This would not be the same without them. I extend my sincere thanks to all the teachers and parents for their understanding and support.

This is a highly multi-talented batch of students in our school. Aside from academics, we value advancement in the arts, cultural activities, and sports. One of the best aspects of our college is that it places equal emphasis on all areas to develop the overall talents and personalities of the students. I stand here, feeling lucky to be a part of your life, even if it is only in a small way. This school is so proud of all you have accomplished and every achievement you have garnered for yourself.   You all have been excellent performers in academics and won so many olympiads and awards. And you didn’t hold back even in extracurricular activities like sports tournaments like martial arts, football, basketball and badminton. Our school has also been a top performer in inter-school events like dancing, singing, speech, elocution and debate. The book club that you have started which is now thriving also shows your innovative side. 

Our students have put their best foot forward to make this college function a success. Preparations have been underway since last month. Let us all take a moment to appreciate them.

Let me provide the schedule for today's function before we get started. To begin with, we have our principal inviting our honoured guests. We then have a speech, followed by the pupils' performances. At last, our honoured visitors take the stage and relate their experiences. Our distinguished keynote guest will then present medals to the students.

Finally, I'd like to wish everyone a good time at the celebration and I wish you all to take some lovely and happy memories with you. I now invite our Principal Shri (Name of your Principal) to speak a few words.

These are samples for a college event. To extend an understanding, let us go through a general guide for writing a speech.

Address the audience - "Good evening to everyone present here!" is an appropriate greeting. Then, using a sentence like "It is my pleasure to invite everyone to our magnificent venue tonight," welcomes the audience to the event. Keep the tone in check. If it's a special occasion, use a more solemn tone.

Welcome the guests - "A warm welcome to all the esteemed guests present here today!" is a simple and clear greeting to use. Use a sentence like "It's so nice to see you all here on this beautiful day" to make them feel welcome. More informal language may be suitable for an occasion with close friends and relatives. Include a few jokes in your speech to lighten it up.

Information about the event - Give a brief description of the event's name and purpose. If it's important, provide the event's name and age, and a little about the organisation that put it on.

Thank the helpers/aiders - Mention at least two people who assisted in making the event a reality. Mention their names as well as the roles they played. 

Engage the audience - Mention any particularly noteworthy aspects of the incident. If applicable, introduce what's coming up later in the event or the future days. Pick the most significant elements and encourage people to stick around for or pay special attention to them.

Ending the speech - If appropriate, express your hope that the audience appreciates the event. Send your warmest greetings to them for the remainder of the event.

Duration   - Keep your discourse to a reasonable length. The event will determine the duration. A shorter speech is usually better because most people just want to get on with the event. Smaller events should last no more than 1-2 minutes, whereas larger and more formal events, such as conferences, should last no more than 5 minutes.

Speech on Cultural Diversity: Sample 1

To the honorable guests, teachers, and my dear classmates: Today I am honored to keep my point of view through my speech on cultural diversity.

As we know, culture and human beings are incomplete without each other. It is only the culture that defines us as human beings. If I say, that culture is the base of shaping our perspectives of the world, our values, customs, and identities it wouldn´t be wrong. Opening our minds to the diversity of culture helps us with new ideas, perspectives, and innovations. 

Now you must be wondering why it is necessary to celebrate cultural diversity.

The celebration of cultural diversity is important for promoting understanding between people of different backgrounds. Intercultural understanding not only helps in reducing the reason for discrimination and conflicts but also allows us to understand each other appreciate different worldviews and stand united on our common humanity.

The celebration of cultural diversity is just not a formality. It is a powerful tool used for the promotion of intercultural understanding. In a world of different cultures and discrimination, which often leads to discrimination and conflicts, the understanding of culture becomes a bridge to unity. By appreciating the different perspectives and views of people and their respective cultures we can deconstruct the barriers of preconception and hatred. Through this sensibility, we can stand united on the common ground where we all share humanity.

In conclusion, celebrating diversity based on different cultures is merely not a source of luxury rather it propels us toward the future which requires understanding, replaces ignorance, and results in the prevailance of unity. More involvement in the cultures shares experiences of human experiences which further helps not only in understanding the culture but also in bridging the gap of differences.

Speech on Cultural Diversity: Sample 2

Greetings to the respected gathered people. Today I am going to keep my perspective by speech on cultural diversity. 

As we all know the differences in culture are just not concepts rather it is a reality that helps to shape the world in different ways. To understand it more clearly, let us take an example of the tech industry. Silicon Valley is the center point of people with talents, innovations as well as different cultures. 

Brilliant minds from across the globe get together to create the next inventions rather than the wave of many inventions and developments. Engineers, designers, microbiologists, and entrepreneurs bring with them a rich culture that further builds up an environment of creativity. 

The cooperation of people with different backgrounds helps create an understanding of the differences in culture. Moreover, it also drives the development of solutions that help the global audience. 

Let us consider an example of a successful startup where people from various countries are gathered with respective cultural backgrounds. Each team member has unique insights into the culture which further contributes to the idea that leads up to a product that resonates with a broad spectrum of users. This interaction of different perspectives not only sparks innovation but also enhances the adaptability of the product in different markets. 

Moreover, cultural diversity in the workplace will lead to an exchange of ideas, which ultimately will help in making innovative decisions and as well as a decision-making process. It will break the environment that validates a limited set of ideas and feelings, challenges assumptions and promotes a culture of continuous learning.

This real-world example listed several benefits that are just not related to cultural diversity but also demonstrate that cultural diversity is just not for moral implementation but has a strategic advantage. The combination of technology, business, and cultural diversification becomes a catalyst for the progress of the entire startup and reminds us of the importance of innovation, inclusiveness, and a peaceful future.
