Speaker's tip (Welcome first, thank last): Welcome address: near the start — “A very warm welcome to our chief guest…”, “We are delighted to have all the parents with us.” Vote of thanks: at the end — the chief guest first, then the Principal, teachers, students, support staff and the audience. “Last but not least…” leads to the final thanks. Keep both short and sincere; say every name correctly.
