Vincenti Dabitur

My grandfather went to school there. He jumped the length of the long-jump sandpit.
My father went to school there. He was a corporal in the National Cadet Corps, and a distinguished sportsman.
Seven uncles went to school there. All mostly geniuses and national-level sportsmen.
Four cousins went to school there. One is a millionaire, a couple in Princeton and Harvard.
My brother went to school there. He was a once-in-a-generation footballer.
I went to school there. I was sergeant in the corps and half-decent at everything else.
Now, my son will go to St Vincent’s High School, Pune.
