Magazine/souvenir -- important update
Dear all,
It has been confirmed that the magazine/souvenir is coming out in October this year. So we need to work faster. The advertisements should be in by June and the write ups should reach us by May, preferably April. So whoever is in charge of whatever related to the magazine/souvenir, wake up!

Souvenir/ Magazine
These are the people in the souvenir team.
Feel free to send your contributions to anyone/two/three/four/all of them. The souvenir will come out next year and we are yet to get a deadline for contributions. But start sending in your writeups, because we also need time for sorting and (if required) editing them. As for the wordcount, we were told each article should fill atmost three sides of foolscap paper.
You can also submit your writeups to Amita-di and Dolly-di, or to any teacher for that matter.
Best,
Rianka Roy (2001)

Meeting: 14th March, 2009
Dear all, you must be aware that some of us met at school today. Today's meeting was a bit more conclusive, and more structured, than the previous ones. Most of the present and former teachers of our school were present (and the MB fans, who weren't present, missed things that matter even more. She attended today's meeting, in person). The attendance of the alumnae was also remarkable.
2. And after having our heads filled with edifying thoughts, we'll get to fill our tummies too. Do not miss the sumptuous meal of fried rice, alur dom and other delicious tidbits. Well, it's yet to be fixed whether we'll get the lunch before the discussion or after it. But we'll get it for sure. And it's also not decided whether we'll have a buffet or a takeaway distribution of food-packets.
3. As for the walk, there will be a dress code for the alumnae. So far we have decided to wear white and green cotton sarees. Each of us will also don a cool embroidered sash, for which you have to pay 30 bucks to, errm, some senior didi whose name I've forgotten. She's a friend of Anjana Banerjee-di (class of '81 probably).
4a. And in the procession there will be tableaus, placards, posters on various themes like global warming, literacy programmes, water conservation, wildlife protection and other topics pertaining to social awareness. Anyone and everyone can make these posters, but they should be attractive, bear clear messages and carry legible writings. Please talk to Swapna (Basu) di for further clarifications.
4b. You can also build your own music-groups with your batchmates and sing along as you march on with heads held high.
5. We also need volunteers for crowd management, food distribution and other thankless yet indispensable chores on the day. We need people for decoration as well who will help the kiddies. Please register your names with Swapna di. Though no registration has started yet, we need to push this thing a bit more on our own because all the teachers will remain busy with the board exams till the 31st of march.
6. And those who are in the cultural team (the names are with Tithi Amboli, but she couldn't turn up today, nor could Saujanya. They are the secretaries of the Alumni Association.) you are supposed chalk out a programme of 2.5 hrs' duration for the last day of the three-day long carnival in October. The dates are probably, 27, 28, 29. Or they may be 28, 29,30. On the last day, after the seminar, there will be a break of 30 mins. So the cultural team is supposed to provide a filler for those 30 minutes too, which means there will be a 30minutes+2hrs 30 minutes long programme.
7. Meanwhile, those who are willing to contribute for the magazine/souvenir, please start sending your writings in Bengali/ English to Anjana Banerjee, Sanhita Bandyopadhyay, Rianka Roy, Ahirini Deb, Indrani Das. We still could not fix a word-limit or a deadline.
8. We are meeting next on the 4th of April for last moment discussions for the walk.
Best,
Rianka Roy. (rianka.roy@gmail.com) [2001]
