The graduation was celebrated with a cap and gown ceremony held at Stoney Ground Primary School auditorium.

The ceremonies began with a graduation procession followed by a word of prayer led by Pastor John Gumbs.

The prayer was preceded with songs sung by each of the grades of the Gloria Omololu Institute.
