按：愛(ài)爾蘭使館是百年職校長(zhǎng)期資助者，“愛(ài)與百年”源起2006年，得到前任戴克瀾大使的巨大支持。在百年職校2014年度畢業(yè)暨開(kāi)學(xué)典禮上，在學(xué)校辦學(xué)進(jìn)入第十年的特殊時(shí)刻，現(xiàn)任愛(ài)爾蘭大使康寶樂(lè)先生“愛(ài)續(xù)百年”，為2014年度畢業(yè)生送上祝福，為學(xué)校送來(lái)來(lái)自愛(ài)爾蘭的期望。
尊敬的各位來(lái)賓，同學(xué)們，老師們，大家下午好。我是愛(ài)爾蘭駐華大使康寶樂(lè)，很高興能參加這次活動(dòng)。你們知道天不怕、地不怕，最怕愛(ài)爾蘭人說(shuō)普通話。（中文講述，掌聲）希望你們的掌聲是因?yàn)槲业钠胀ㄔ捳f(shuō)的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。（掌聲）
I’d like to say how really happy I am to be here today on this wonderful occasion. It is such an inspiration to see the faces of these young people who had just graduated after two years of hard work in this great school. I’d like to solute both the students and faculty here and the other eight schools around china and also the school in Luanda in Angola.
We have been working together for many years with BNVS. Yao Li is a great friend of Ireland and a great friend of Irish embassy.
You may ask yourself why is Ireland of so support of BNVS？The reason is that for hundreds of years Ireland has sent millions of population around the world as immigrants and as migrants. And I know how difficult and how challenging it is when the family arrives in a new environment and how hard it is to start a new life. And so the experience and life experience of the family whose children are graduating today with such distinction. The challenges that face those families are the challenges the Irish people are familiar with and know in their bones.
So I feel proud to be part of the family here and I’d like to congratulate again at the wonderful students both here and at other locations at your credit, and to your families and to your teachers and to your communities and also to your country, this great country China. I wish you all a very very bright future, continue to work hard. Don’t forget the lessons you learnt here and BNVS. And all you have this evening a great party. Thank you very much.

今天非常高興能有機(jī)會(huì)蒞臨現(xiàn)場(chǎng)，這是一個(gè)非常激動(dòng)人心的時(shí)刻。看到在座所有年輕人朝氣蓬勃的臉龐，你們剛剛經(jīng)過(guò)了兩年的辛苦學(xué)習(xí)，成功地從學(xué)校畢業(yè)，這真的使我深受鼓舞。在此我想向所有的同學(xué)們、老師們，包括在視頻上的其他9所百年職校的學(xué)生問(wèn)好。
愛(ài)爾蘭使館和百年職校已經(jīng)有著非常緊密的合作，非常長(zhǎng)的歷史。我和姚莉理事長(zhǎng)也是非常親密的朋友，姚莉理事長(zhǎng)也是我們愛(ài)爾蘭人民的朋友。
大家可能會(huì)問(wèn)一個(gè)問(wèn)題，愛(ài)爾蘭這個(gè)國(guó)家為什么會(huì)從百年職校建校以來(lái)就對(duì)它提供大力的支持呢？因?yàn)椋瑦?ài)爾蘭是一個(gè)移民國(guó)家，在過(guò)去一百年內(nèi)，有成百萬(wàn)的愛(ài)爾蘭人分別向世界各地移民。實(shí)際上我們非常清楚當(dāng)一個(gè)家庭抵達(dá)一個(gè)全新的環(huán)境，他們將面臨怎樣的挑戰(zhàn)，會(huì)遇到怎樣的困難，我們非常理解這種心情。所以在座的所有畢業(yè)生們，你們自己的家庭經(jīng)歷，實(shí)際上就是這種感受，我們愛(ài)爾蘭的移民家庭可以說(shuō)是親身經(jīng)歷，完全能夠理解。
我們十分驕傲是百年職校這個(gè)大家庭中的一員。我想向今天在座所有的畢業(yè)生以及視頻直播的所有學(xué)校的畢業(yè)生說(shuō)一句話：你們非常努力，你們的家庭、社區(qū)，你們的老師，還有你們的國(guó)家，都會(huì)深深地以你們?yōu)闃s。我希望你們每個(gè)人都有錦繡前程，能夠謹(jǐn)記學(xué)校的教誨。愿你們擁有一個(gè)愉快的夜晚！謝謝！
