WATCH: Memorable lockdown graduation ceremonies
A lot of students have had to forfeit their graduation ceremonies due to the coronavirus outbreak.
South Africans have an amazing sense of humour and this helps us survive challenges - including the cancellations of all the plans we had for 2020.
Thousands of students were looking forward to their graduation ceremonies but unfortunately had to cancel due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Some families and colleagues decided to host these ceremonies and celebrations in their homes and workplaces so their loved ones could get a taste of the experience.

A lot of the videos were shared on social media and these are some of our favourites.
