Karti Chidambaram and Sibiraj were few of the distinguished alumini present at the golden jubilee function. It was a special day for Don Bosco Matriculation Higher Secondary School on Saturday, as it celebrated its golden jubilee along with its inter-school cultural. There were events like, Battle of the Bands- a competition of western and light music, street theatre, dance and Spotlight - a variety of entertainments events consisting of mimicry, mono acting, standard comics, light music, singing, gymnastics, fashion parade, mime, magic, and puppetry.
The highlight of the event was the presence of Karti Chidambaram and actor Sibiraj, both alumni of Don Bosco. Karti Chidambaram spoke about his memories from school and also expressed pride over the launch of Chandrayaan. "Chandrayaan is an initiative that makes me proud as an Indian. However, while we are still fighting issues like poverty, lack of cleanliness and bad roads when it rains, the still get submerged and make travel extremely hard. As young students you must take a stand and responsibility to work for a better world and not just be merge spectators," he said. Actor Sibiraj, who had passed out of the school in the year 2000, on the other hand thanked the school for all that it had given him. "I got my first acting platforms in this school. The actor in me was spotted when I did a little play here. I still remember all my teachers very clearly, though some of them have retired now," he said.
The events were followed by a well- choreographed fashion show by the Don Bosco team. The young models keep it natural and smart. St Bedes emerged as the overall winners of the event, followed by Loyola Matriculation and sacred Heart in the second and third places respectively.
