Greetings !
We are here with our third edition of the quarterly
newsletter for the session 2013-14.
It’s our proud privilege indeed to consolidate the events &
happenings for this edition which saw some path breaking
achievements by Tagoreans. It was heartwarming to see that
while climbing the ladder of success,they did not forget their
responsibilities towards the community as a whole.
Hope you enjoy reading this with the same pleasure &
pride!

Dear Friends
As the sun began its southward journey in the last quarter of the calendar year, adrenaline levels in TIS shot northwards. The cold weather or dark mornings did not deter determined Tagoreans from ensuring that the Athletic Meets, the fete
‘Winterlude’, or the educational trips were successful. We also impressed our guests from China, who went back saying they had a lot to learn from TIS.

The winter vacation has given you all some time to ‘cool’ off; and starting from January, it is imperative that the focus shifts back to academics. Go through this newsletter, relive all those wonderful moments, and then sit down to make the next quarter as rewarding as the last one. May you all have a great year ahead.
