Not sure this is relevant to who asked the question some time ago, but for those who will be needing to make a speech such as this in the future, here are my thoughts:

Report on the highlights of the PTA activities undertaken during your tenure. Focus on the positive aspects of the activities and achievements. If your treasurer will not be presenting the finances, you can highlight your financial performance for the activities.
Assess your motto/mission/vision and highlight things you were able to do towareds achieving them.

Acknowledge the support of all who assisted you during your tenure. If you begin to call names, make sure you remember everyone so that no one feels left out. Thank the team that worked with you and ofcourse thank the parents, teachers, administrators, sponsors and students who contributed to making your tenure a success.

Next congratulate the incoming administration and wish them well. Offer your help in providing advice if needed.
