Kinderland’s Annual Graduation Concert is always a cherished year-end event, and 2024 was no exception. This year’s theme, Retro Rewind, brought families and teachers on a nostalgic journey through the iconic music of the 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s, celebrating the timeless tunes that have inspired generations.
Held on 14 December 2024 at PJ Live Arts, the event commemorated the graduation of Kindergarten Two (K2) children from Kinderland Malaysia centres. It was a day of pride and joy for all, marking a significant milestone in the children’s educational journey.
The concert opened with a spirited march-in of the graduates, their radiant smiles reflecting their excitement and pride. Following this, the audience was treated to heartfelt valedictorian speeches. This was delivered in four languages—English, Bahasa Malaysia, Mandarin, and Tamil. The student representatives from each centre executed their lines brilliantly, showcasing Kinderland’s commitment to linguistic and cultural diversity.
The highlight of the event was the dazzling array of curated setlist of musical and dance performances, inspired by the Retro Rewind theme. From ABBA to Michael Jackson, Saloma and Sudirman in between, the performance was a trip down memory lane. Parents were especially overjoyed to see Kinderland alumni and “Little Emcees” introduce every performance. Their courage and bravery speak volume when they had to come up on stage to deliver their memorized lines.
The Retro Rewind Graduation Concert was not only a celebration of the graduates’ achievements but also a testament to Kinderland’s dedication to fostering a love for learning, creativity, and cultural appreciation. Here is to the Class of 2024—may they continue to shine brightly in their future endeavours!
