Shades of the same person...

The year was 1979, the month was April..2 good little girls dressed in their Saturday best were eagerly awaiting all the food and beer the Fete would bring. Notice the butter won't melt in our mouth smiles... one's at attention, the other at ease! Raj..if we could even be a shade of our former thin selves..guess I should speak for myself :-)

And then this shows up..blackmail material forever, bwahahahaha! Latha Nair and Raj playing dress-up!

The Final March Past culminates not just the day, but hours and hours of sports training and relentless marching practice! On the left is Barton House (captain Malika Rao), in the middle - a section of Maiden House (captain Viji R) and on the right is Foley House (captain Firdaus H) which won the inter house sports championship that year.

And of course, who could forget those ceremonial moments that marked the occasion...

On the Left: Sports Captain Sheela Nambiar takes the oath on behalf of all the athletes. On the Right: A solemn moment at the Closing Ceremony as the band plays Auld Lang Syne, and Sheela N, Sheila K (Sports Vice Cap'n) and School Vice Cap'ns Sumathi Bedi and Leena Athyal deliver the school flag to School Captain Christine Marley
