Printable templates let you organise a party in an evening rather than waiting on a print order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEverything is editable in Canva, so one design covers a high school graduation, a college graduation or a postgraduate ceremony by changing a few words.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's in this collection\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGraduation party invitations\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eannouncements\u003c\/strong\u003e, with space for a photo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWelcome signs\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003econgratulations banners\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePhoto display signs\u003c\/strong\u003e — a timeline of school years, which reliably makes at least one parent cry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGuest book and advice cards\u003c\/strong\u003e for the graduate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFood table signs\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003emenus\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThank you cards\u003c\/strong\u003e for gifts afterwards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAnnouncements versus invitations\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese are different things and people confuse them. An announcement tells extended family and friends that the graduate has finished, and does not require anything of them. An invitation asks people to come to a party.
