Torres High School Batch '78 News Page
     "Our aim is to link us together as we prepare for our 25th Grand Anniversary Reunion in the year 2003."

It has been a great year for the batch of 1978.  From the AfterMath78's Y2K launching, to the transition to KaEskwela, atbp in May...From the mini reunions in Manila, LA, Vancouver, New York and Toronto to the two Batch 78 Grand Fellowships in Manila...From the short emails to the CyberReunion I & II.....the batch exhibited the great desire to reach out and rekindle the past and create new and lasting memories.
From all of us in KaEskwela, we'd like to greet everyone a

and we pray that the group will grow much bigger next year!!!

The Family Day- Postponed


Family is the focal point of the group.  We love to see our kids experience and learn the value of friendship through our examples. 

It was a wise idea however, on the part of the organizers to postpone the much anticipated Family Day.  With the current economic condition in the Philippines, it would better to set aside the finances for the kid's gifts on Christmas.

We are sorry for those who were disappointed but we promise to make it "THE" Family Day...the mother of all festivities...for our young ones and the young once, too!
See you there next year!!!

"The Video" Hits Vancouver
 

Here's Western Canada's reactions after watching the Philippine Batch '78 Fellowship Reunion Video Tape. A little note from Fenchie and Terry.
 
 

"Received the video tape last Friday.  Still having a hard time trying to figure out who's who.  Hopefully, on November 13(Remembrance Day Holiday), Beng, Terry, Celso and I (plus families) will be able to gather in Terry's home to watch the video together.  It is more fun that way."  - Fenchie
 
 

"thanks for sending the video.it was fun watching them even we cannot recognized most of them. beng and i watched it together last saturday, dapat sana 2 weekend ago pa kaso lahat kami dito nagkasakit, kaya na reschedule, hindi tuloy nakasama sina Fenchie, kasi may previous engagement na sila. anyway one day we will get together ulit."   - terry
