Cambridge School Certificate mark sheet BCS Batch

Cambridge School Certificate mark sheet BCS Batch 1957 sent in by Dr. Santokh Singh (Leroy House Captain '57) and says "The above is a chart prepared by the School in early 1958 for the 1957 batch results. You may put it on the OC News-letter to remind my classmates how brilliant we were!! 😀 Note: all 4 Lefroyans are in the middle coincidentally!" Most members from this class went on to do well in life. Wonder if Dr Santokh Singh can give a brief account for each one of them. Every life is an interesting one, a book of its own story!! #ocaofbcs #bishopcottonschool #1957 #nostalgia #bcsheritage

Mission Aconcagua Completed / Karma Tenzing Nyangm

Mission Aconcagua Completed / Karma Tenzing Nyangmi writes :
"Completed. Here’s me at the summit of #Aconcagua (6,962 meters or 22,840 feet above sea level) after an intense 13 hours of climbing where we started our climb directly from Camp 2 with no acclimatisation. Due to weather conditions we had to change and complete our entire climb from Base Camp to Summit and back to Base Camp in a shortened 5 days (in Everest it was 21 days and in Manaslu I did it in 10 days – Usually it takes double or even three times for most climbers). With this summit of Aconcagua, I’m now closer to my goals of being a true Explorer. If summiting an 8,000 meter peak is equivalent to a Masters degree and summiting Everest is a PhD, then the below are the lifetime Emeritus titles offered. So far, below are my membership journey into the various clubs I’ve always wanted to be a part of:

Completed 1/3rd of the Three Poles Challenge
Completed 2/7th of the Seven Summits Challenge
Completed 2/9th of the Explorers Grand Slam
Completed 2/14th of the 14 8,000+ Meters Challenge"
