Dear friends, I woke up today to the pleasant news of longevity and resilience—my high school located in the beautiful Zoroastrian enclave of Dadar Parsi Colony, Mumbai—The J. B. Vachha High School for Parsi girls and the Cowasjee Jehangir Primary & Infant School (J.B.V.)—turned 100 years old today!
It was great to read your article. I too passed out in 1969. Had great teachers like Mrs. Tehmi Shroff - the French teacher - Miss Freny Mehta - the Geography teacher and many more whom moulded us to be great human beings.. Thank U Anu Prabhakar for the lovely article on our dear Alma Mater.. Long live J.B.V.. Indeed proud to be an ex-student…
Your article about 100 th anniversary of JB Vachha school was so interesting, it reminded me of my school Fellowship High School near August Kranti maidan, Nana chowk. Your story telling skills are mesmerizing.
Keep writing such fantastic piece of art and information
