What an incredible day!
Our batch picnic 2025, organised by the 20th &21st batches, became a warm celebration of laughter, friendship, and shared moments. All students, our respected teachers, and the honourable Dean were invited—and we were delighted to have four of our beloved teachers join us and enjoy the day with us.

The beautiful scenario of the Bakkhali River added an unforgettable charm to the whole picnic. The gentle breeze, the calm water, and the peaceful surroundings made every moment feel refreshing.

We had a delicious lunch, tasty snacks, fun games, and friendly competitions that kept everyone engaged. The song segment filled the air with cheerful voices, and the lively dance segment brought everyone to their feet—adding even more colour and excitement to the day.
Every smile, conversation, and shared moment made this picnic truly memorable.

Thank you to everyone who came and made the day special.
