Carroll's majestic walk amongst t class rooms !! zonal sports and we beating the so called big names...Doon/welhams/Cambrian hall et al .. and the final event on sports day -- cycle race !!!! |
| Harmeet Singh | I was in the first class which became co-ed in SJA boy it was fun we just had 5 or 6 girls in the entire school and gradually it caught up.New section E was formed to fill in the large numbers of students. |
| Navneet Panwar | good |
| Dev Doot Sen | We used to put on shows each year one year there were three of us (I just can't remember the names of the other two guys) we formed a trio band and sang "When I am 64" by the Beatles we called ourselves the Academites - I think my mom still has photo of that I must try get a copy of her. One day a few of us bunked off to Mussori it was winter and there was snow on the groud. |
| Varun Chhabra | school life was quite fun... though i never bunked classes but i was the mischevious boy... always late for assembly.. then making excuses for not being able to run 2 rounds of 'Big Field'. classes were meant to conveniently pass our time chit chatting ( i was branded the most talkative boy of our class) or playing cross nd knots. P.t. period remeinds me of sharma sir.. who tried so hard to teach us hockey.. communicating the nuances of hockey in his very special english.. (often overshadowed by grammar of bajwa mam..) den dere was dis tau of our school (cycle stand caretaker).. another jovial character. I miss all of dis a lot... simplicity combined with carefree behavior... |

| Rupesh Singh | Its was a big thing.. i still remember the pride i used to have for just being a part of the school. Being a Josephite was a brand and i am so happy that the brand is still going so strong. Class 11th and 12th were the most memorable ones... that's were the actual bonding happened with the guys.. the bonding which i am yet to find in any other relationship. We use to fight, play, tease the girls ( mostly cjm), trouble the teachers, compete in exams, go for treks, eat up the tiffen during the class, etc etc...yet today, with no expectations i have the best friends in these guys... that's school life for me. |
| Vikram Datta | APART FROM STUDIES A WHOLE LOT OF CASUAL GAMES - TENNIS CRICKET, STEP BALL, "MARAM PITTI", ETC. |
| Arti Jain | Being a part of the debating team, losing the vote to be the school's head girl by 6 votes!! Getting the Josephite of the year award and making life long friendships, plus the usual crushes on mates and teachers! |

| Hari Shanker Deo | In school science and maths were the tough subjects. Later Hindi also became difficult since Hindi was not my mother-tongue. Hardly visited Dennis's tuck shop. Used to have lunch at home. We used to take part in Hindi dramas. We were the only ones to come to school in a car. I remember the torrential rains. We all had gum boots and raincoats. Remember the P.T. and sports. Debates and declamations. When I passed out felt very sad that I had to part with all my friends. Most left Dehradun forever. Some are dead and gone. |

| Vinayak Mathur | Have a vivid memory of the Cultural Week, Debates, Sports Day, Summer Camps, After school games practice and the mega musical - Peter Pan. P.T. periods were the most fun and the interval was usually spent either playing in the Big Field or devouring the delicious Bun-samosas in the canteen. The best place to bunk was the corridor beside the Library... Jai Bhaiya was a willing accomplice in all such endeavors... |
| Swaraj Kaur | i miss the music classes .. i dont remember the name of the teacher... |
| Amit Verma | My school life :- It was always fun with friends. Sharing books and PT shoes from friends in other sections. Mr SK Gupta's scolding,Mr Sharma's English. Lots more ................ |
| Deepak Ramola | Oh I get nostalgic. A sweet heart ache, makes me remember the past with a sad and happy feeling. I long to walk down with my old friends next to the big field. Oh That sports Days, That morning Assembly and Gurung Sir shouting at us. So many things in life just flash by and I thought, yes ! this will stay with me, this will stay with me for long, I will never for get this dawn, thas passion, this love, but Shewwwwwwww...!!, and its all gone, but I believe it stays in your memory.........Nothing has been so close to my heart than my school days. My teachers, Br.Maldoni, Br.Bernard, S.K.Gupta sir, Shukla sir, Xavier David sir, Mrs.Devgan, Mrs.Bist, Gurung sir and Sharma sir (PTIs)...the list is endless and every teacher is unique and special to me. I don't how can pay back these fine people for their tremendeous efforts they've put in to shape me to face this world. Like a fine sculpturist (*Quote:Michael Angelo) they've tried making me a master piece. |

| Hari Shanker Deo | We used to have moral science at the beginning of each day. There was a teacher who just couldn't control the VII th. Std., which was the combined VI A and B. Most of the boys left and so did the teacher. The whole class was given a double promotion and so we went directly to the IXth. The Xth. was our last year at school and we were very sad since we knew that we would have to leave the school and our wonderful friends forever. We had boxing but once a boy was crying after a bout. Bro. Dooley found out and that was the end of boxing. |

| Neeraj Khandwal | FUN |
| Ankit Suri | The best part was the interval when we used to run towards the canteen and stretch our hands to the maximum and get a bun samosa...The moment it reached our hands we used to gulp it th very next minute.. Mr.Sharma's P.T. period was the most awaited period in the entire week.Football matches and running around the field. Cultural week was one thing in which every josephite used to participate in one form or the other. Those were the 3 days of fun, thrill and total excitement. Producing deafening noises to win the trophy for the house producing the maximum noise |
| Vikram Datta | friends, classes, practicals, tennis |
| Rohan Mittal | The most wonderful days of my life!! I was a sincere and studious in some way. Used to like computer programming, physics, and math in particular.
