The noise could be heard clearly even from some distance away. As one neared the auditorium, it seemed as if the lunch break was going on and the girls were making the most of the time to catch up with their friends. Except the break was after a gap of a few years and the girls were women of all age groups who were seeing their friends after a long time, in some cases as long as 30 years. Only the excitement remained unchanged.
Baldwin Girls' High School's Old Girls' Association organised a gala reunion on August 6. Called 'Flashback - 2016', the event had more than 200 women turn up for the reunion despite it being a working day. Women hung around with friends and clicked pictures while sounds of laughter and animated talking pervaded the space.
"We try to meet up at least two times in a year. Also, these occasions are used to raise money for any of our friends who might be in need or to commemorate teachers or helpers who have been with this school for years. This time, quite a large number of ladies have turned up since it was well publicised," says Radhika Shyam, a member of the alumnae.
Attending the reunion with her two daughters, both of whom passed out from the same school, Nagineh Rizvi, the president of the association and a passout of the 1962 batch, says "It was my dream to do something for the school. My mother was also an active member of the old girl's association."
