The evening was a mix of nostalgia and anticipation as old friends met and renewed ties. Excited alumni looked visibly happy to meet their teachers who welcomed them whole-heartedly.
The preparations for the function had been going on for months with great perseverance. Some alumni like Mr. Vivek Narang, Mr. Vivek Luthra, Ms. Sukriti Khurana left no stone unturned in ensuring that the maximum number attend the meet. The function commenced with the lighting of the lamp by the Director, Mrs. Usha Chopra and the Principal, Mrs. Vandana Chawla.

The compere Ms. Sukriti Khurana and Mr. Vivek Luthra conducted some party games and thereafter everyone moved downstairs for some delectable eats. The day was clearly not over as everyone lingered on savouring the warm moments of fun and friendship.
