Christmas Hamper to deserving students

[Raymond Rebello]

On Fri, 19th Dec 2025, just before school Christmas vacation, the Vincentian Old Boys Association (VOBA) distributed Christmas gift hampers to deserving students of St.Vincent’s High School from 1st to 9th Stds.

For the past many years VOBA had been distributing essential food commodities, but this year (Dec 2025), the Principal Fr. Titus Thangaraj, suggested that we make a change from the past trend and give something meaningful and useful.

Accordingly, the Executive Committee decided to give the following items to 70 students (35 from the Primary & 35 from the Secondary sections), and to meet the expenses of these gift items, many EC Members donated generously, as well as a few other Vincentians.

PRIMARY SECTION : 1st to 4th Stds were given :-

1. School Bag 2. ⁠Vincent’s Sweater 3. ⁠Compass Box 4. ⁠Rich Plum Cake 

SECONDARY SECTION : 5th to 9th Stds were given :-

1. School Bag  2. ⁠Set of 12 Exercise Books  3. ⁠Compass Box 4. ⁠Rich Plum Cake.

The gift items were handed to the selected students at the hands of the Principal, the Supervisor (of Primary & Secondary School), the Teacher Coordinator & a few VOBA EC members.

With much gratitude to the School Management & the VOBA EC.
