  2. Intro • Good evening Principal Madam and Sir, teachers, fellow Alumni and young students. • I feel privilege and honored to stand before you this evening. • It was 28 years ago that I step out of the protective environment of the school. • My journey since has taken me to different parts of the country and the world. • Having spend so many years away - why do I, like most of you, still feel the connect with the school.
