This evening I went to take part in the 75 years Silver Jubilee celebration of my school .. Holy Name High School Fort Mumbai that was once called Tin Pot school by our detractors the elite schools surrounding us Fort Convent And Campion School , but this was vindicated when the Obamas danced to the Koli song..“Mee Hai Koli,” 8 November 2010.
U.S. President celebrates Diwali, dances to Koli song
The school grounds for the Diamond jubilee were fully packed , the entrance fee was Rs 100 .
The cake was cut by the Principal and than there was some dance music by the school kids ,,
Ours was the 1972 batch and Sunil Thapa , Ramesh Mulchandani , Dennis Fernandes from Surinam , Diago , Suresh Chablani Jyoti, Ram Parsani were there ..
It was a great moment and I decided to document it for those who could not make it ,.
I met my school teachers Mrs Moses Miss Agnes Mr Alex Vaz and Mr Subramaniam who has not forgotten me since 1972.
