HOSTEL ANNIVERSARY DINNER

The Hostel commemorates its anniverary with a special dinner every year. It is a night of celebration enjoyed by all. The following is a short write-up of the 2006 event by hostelite Stephanie Tanojo:

The feast was sumptuous -as it always is- and the gathering provided a temporary escape from our hectic school lives. Moreover, with the improved conditions in the dining hall, we were able to enjoy ourselves to the fullest. This event enabled me to catch up on the latest gossip with friends and interact with the teacher mentors. The performances were amazing and they entertained us so much that we almost forgot that it was actually also a farewell party for the SM2 boarders. All in all, it added to the already countless great experiences that the DHS Hostel has given us boarders.
