The Thomian Class of 62 – 73 celebrated 60 years as a group with a celebratio­n on January 22. Following a morning service at the Chapel of the Transfigur­ation, the Group handed over a cheque of Rs400,000 to the Sub-Warden in support of the Smart Board project.

The Group thereafter visited the boarding dining room for breakfast, after which they walked around reminiscin­g. They later gathered at the Old Thomians Swimming Club for fellowship and a discussion about their plans for the future. They formally elected a Committee to forge ahead and achieve their envisaged goals.
