Class of 1990  :  Felicitating the Teachers of our Era

Drinks  :  Music-Lunch

Date  :  Sunday 6^th March 10am

Venue  :  ’80 Club Independence Avenue

 

Guys,

 

In Jan 1977 most of us walking into the Lower School Building remember a wooden board by the stairs displaying those famous words of 

Warden Buck, “You belong to one of the best schools in the world.......” (back then we were too young to understand the rest of it and too 

old now to remember the balance!!)

 

Interestingly somewhere in the middle it says ... “You have learned the best lessons in the world at S.T.C., .......not only English 

and classics and mathematics.......all those things that make a man and a gentleman...”

 

At a time when we are looking to felicitate those great men and women, the teachers of our Era, who had the unenviable task of guiding us 

through our youth, all of us will agree how true those words are!!

 

Frankly after almost 21 years when we think of the lessons learnt at STC, what comes most to mind is not the maths or science we learnt 

(or did not learn for that matter!!), but Jacko’s  lectures on the birds and the bees!!!! Binduhewa’s stories on Hitler... studying 

Malkanthi’s Contours during map marking and pouring over Sakunthala’s Passages in the English Period... .

 

Machang  jokes apart, all of us owe it to the great masters and teachers of our era who sacrificed immensely to teach us the lessons of life.

Almost 30+ teachers of our era will grace the occasion.

 

Firstly, hope all of you will make it to the event and say ‘thank you’ to those teachers who made us what we are.

 

Secondly, in addition a Plaque, we have planned to give each teacher a hamper. Towards this Hamper, many have already contributed 

generously in cash and kind.
