Memories

The feelings of the affinity, the comradeship, the togetherness and the brotherhood resulting from the House and School spirit, acquired by the experience of living, eating, sleeping and fighting together can only be really experienced in a residential school.

'Faculty' includes the record of the past teachers who gave so much for so little and lastly the 'Guest-book' which speaks of what others have written and said about us.

On hearing the news there was a kind of stillness in the whole campus. It seemed as if every inch of the place was agonized at the loss of its creator, father and initiator. No words, no speech or consolation can feel this void. The whole place was desolate as the man who had envisioned these prestigious institutions had sailed away to unknown horizons leaving us stranded. Each one of us was shocked beyond comprehension at this irreparable loss.

Wg Cdr Gyani knew no rest and worked relentlessly to build these institutions from which many hundreds have got their livelihood and many thousands have got educated. He worked his way up to success with determination and hard work. `By Toil he reached the Stars`. He never shied away from work and placed duty before self and even family, always and every time.
