It was not easy for my students to have this meaningful classmate reunion ten years after their graduation as everyone has his or her own family and works in a different place in the province. Some of the students managed to come for the reunion on November 19th to 20th, 2010. It was very exciting to see them come back for the reunion. I used to be head-teacher of this class. With my still staying in the same school, the students decided to come back for the reunion not only to see me, but the school as well.
I am so happy to see that they have now their own career and family. Quite a few of them are very successful with their own businesses. From the classmate reunion, we get to know more of what has happened to each other. When it was time for my students to leave that afternoon, I was so reluctant to see them leave because they remind me of those wonderful old days when we were staying working together, so many good memories.
Is there anyone who has had one such classmate reunion or is expecting to have one? You are so welcome to share with us your experience or idea.
(The following picture is one of those taken when they came to revisit their school. Please enjoy.)
Thank you for reading and responding. Take care!

Hello my friend williamjisir Ji,
No doubt, re-union with any one is a great pleasure to enjoy. I have some different experience what my hubby keeps telling me. My hubby underwent some course in 1954 , one of his batchmate send a mail if he could remember all 38 names in 2002 . My hubby wroteback 35 names very clearly and one with some nick name. Recently we were at bank aaaaaaaand my hubby was annoyed with Mnager, in between one gentleman poked by advising something to my hubbyu. My hubby looked a while at him and straight by addressing his full name my hubby asked him to keep his mouth shut. Everyone wa sstunned after myu hubby ebraced that man. Then both of them forgot about both Ladies and Mangaer and syarted taking about teachers when they studied in class VI to Class X . Tears rolled out of tehir eyes and never wanted to leave each other. I understand, how happy you would have been after seeing your students like big bussinessmen and statesmen. It is a great achievement for any taecher anywhere. Thanks.
May God bless You and have a great time.

Hi jisir, it's the honor and proud of you as well as your school to have successful graduated students in different fields. Yeah, it's a great pleasure to have them to come back to school to reunite again pleasantly in their familiar old school. It's really meaningful and would leave a precious remembrance. I could see these wonderful and vigorous youths in the photo attached
I believe old students always missing their class teacher, for class teacher is the person who spends majority of the time to in charge of the class. Me as well, among all the teachers, my class teacher is the person whom I miss very much and have lots to share with....whenever we meet. I would like to give her a treat for sure. But rarely to have such opportunity and I met her once only years back 
A good and responsible class teacher seems like our loving parent, fiend, .... Other than teaching in the class he or she is the person who influences us very much with his or her inculcating in various aspects to lead us to the succeed, as well as to be a person of sound mind and body.
Take care and happy posting!

Morning, lkbooi. You are right that class teacher is like their parent, who always accompanies them during the day and evening as well. So it is hard to forget the class teacher. I am so happy to be the one of theirs. With their coming back to the mother school, we get to know more information about one another. What makes me the happiest is that they have all had their own career or business that pleases them. Enjoy yourself in the year of rabbit, dear lkbooi.
By the way, I am leaving for my hometown for the winter vacation this afternoon. Now I am getting very excited for it. Right now the sun is out though the ground is still covered with snow, which is melting gradually. Take care.

I can't wait till my high school reunion it truly is going to be a wonderful moment I just know it. It will be truly exciting to see all the people back again and to see how much they have grown and what they are doing with their lives. I just hope that before the reunion that I will be doing good in life. That's all that I have been thinking about ever since I graduated high school I really loved that place way different than college that's for sure.
In college one has to get serious and try hard to pass all the tests and to get a C or better if no it's retake time. High school years were the best so that's why I can't wait for my high school reunion. Still it's not going to happen anytime soon because a year has not even passed yet, but what ever it's something that I can look forward too. It sure is fun to see how people have changed over the years.

Hello Anime123. It is sure to be very exciting and everyone wishes to be well prepared in their life and work before going to such a class reunion. At the class reunion, everyone was asked to talk about their recent life and work and all were happy. It is an unforgettable time. Have a good day, Anime.

Hi
It is really a very happy moment and pleasure to see the old friends. I experienced it once with my school mates. I think it is 15 years ago. We met in our school with the effort of one of our classmate. We friends started back our friendship again.
Now we all are in constant touch with our friends. We used to be 4 thick friends in school. Now we all 4 are in touch with each other. It is really nice and feels nice to have a alumni.
Happy Living and Happy New Year 2011

Last time in october, I went to my hometown. From the previous month itself, we were planning to have a reunion in our school. On 15th October, 2010 we had our reunion in school campus. We were very very excited. Bcoz lot of years passed. We all friends are working in diffrent sectors and different places. And some of us are changed completely. Their outlook, appearance, style everything were noticed to be changed. So it was kind of great event for us. I personally was very happy. Soon after we met to each other, we celebrated with music, dance, discussion and then a grand dinner party. So its really memorable for me...

It is so true that it is memorable for us to have such a wonderful reunion. We also had been to the KTV of the hotel after we had our dinner. We sang one song after another and had some drinks and fruits. But I had to leave earlier as I had classes the next day leaving my students enjoying themselves there as all of them stayed in the International Holiday Hotel, which was convenience for them. Have a good day, friend.

Classmate reunions are very important to me. I had classmates from grade school which moved out of our school and transferred to another one. Some of them are my friends and best friends. I really missed them when I went to High School. We had many good memories when we were grade school students. On my first year of high school, they came to visit. I was really glad that I saw them again. I had chance to talk to them and have bonding time with them. I would never forget those friends that I had which gave me best memories.

Hello menuji. We would never forget those friends who left us best memories. Wherever we are, we miss them. I used to have a best friend as well as a colleague who is now working in another province, but we stay in touch with each other by sending emails and chatting on-line. Good friends will never be forgotten. I am very happy to know that classmate reunions are so important to you. Enjoy your life, friend.

I have always been involved with our 10 year class reunions. All were fun and interesting to see and talk with classmates who moved away and started new lives. Many were very successful and had lucrative careers. My husband gradutated from the same high school so he doesn't get totally bored when we attend a function. Makes it rather interesting.

The other day my daughter had this Alumni meet wherein the classmates met at the college. She was describing so much about it. Many have achieved something in life, had prosperous business establishments, careers and many were married and have children. They shared the old memories, jokes and saw the classroom, trees of the college and canteen and shared their experiences there. It must be a great experience for them.

It is a great experience for them. I also showed my students around the big school, from where they lived on campus to where they studied in the teaching building and even the trees they planted together ten years ago, which are now all tall trees. Too many unforgettable memories in the school...Good day, Buchi_bulla.

Dear friend,
It is really an exiting feeling to be with those friends with whom I had spent my nice times with them. We do have a college reunion. But not yet any class reunion. I do also feel those memories are coming back, those days which time cannot give back neither we can get it back. Still those memories are those saved in our hard disk not yet deleted. Again and again it is viewed and refreshed well when seeing and being with those old friends and class mates. Moreover it brings us a helping hand to those friends who need it. Really a nice one. Thanks for such a nice topic........

Hello friend. I think that you can go and visit your old teachers there if it is not far away from you. It would be very nice to meet them. I love to meet my old students who make me feel so happy, especially when we talk about old things and people, which is a wonderful memory to us. Enjoy yourself, friend.
