The feast of St. Anthony, the patron of St. Anthony’s high School, Monte De Guirim, Goa was celebrated at the 8th annual gathering of the Ex-Students (Toronto Chapter). The gathering was held on Sunday, June 9, 2002 at Sangeet Banquet Hall, 181 Rexdale Boulevard, Etobicoke, Ontario, Canada.
The feast mass was celebrated by Fr. Cecil Noronha s. d. b. and Fr. Terence D’Souza o. f. m. Cap. , a former Headmaster of the school. After mass the celebrations started in traditional Goan fashion. The “New Illusions”, a band featuring Goan musicians, provided live music for the evening. They did a great job of keeping the mixed crowd of attendees entertained throughout the evening. DJ Dahlia provided entertainment for the lively assembly of teenagers. There was a buffet lunch with tasty “Goan Sorpotel” and prizes and surprises galore. The 8th reunion attended by over 400 people was a grand success. The reunion is held every year to coincide with the feast of St. Anthony, the school patron, that is traditionally celebrated on June 13. The President, appointed for a one-year tenure, heads the committee and is given organizational responsibilities. He is ably assisted by a team, which consists of ex-students and their families, friends and fellow Goans. All proceeds generated at these gathering are sent to the Alma Mater for the benefit of the needy and poor students and for the upkeep of the school. Tony Fernandes has been appointed President for the year 2003; we wish him the best of luck. The outgoing President, Felix Colaço wishes to thank all those who helped to make the 8th annual reunion a success.
