f) Felicitation to the Golden Jubilee batches: On 25 December, Vidyalaya joyfully received 55 of its

oldest alumni from batches 62, 63, 64 & 65. They were felicitated jointly by the Vidyalaya and the

Praktani association. Speeches from the representatives of these batches transported everyone to

the bygone days and it was palpable to all present that Vidyalaya still holds a pride of place in their

hearts even after the passage of several decades.

g) Retreat of alumni: The 3rd retreat for alumni was organized on 30 31 May and the 4th retreat on

26-27 December in the Junior Section of the Vidyalaya. Nearly 50-60 ex-students of batches from

1963 to 1997 participated in both the retreats. For one day, they re-lived the old days, praying,

studying, playing and even cleaning the campus with their schoolmates, before bidding farewell to

each other and promising to be back for the next retreat.
