This class photo was taken when I was studying in the 4th Std in KGF School. Mrs Monisse was the class teacher and Mr Dudley Pinto the Head Master. I'm seated 3rd from left. Seems a life time ago
Memories of a glorious childhood spent in Kolar Gold Fields. KGF was known for its colonial ambience and came into existence as early as the 16th century.

My name is Bridget White-Kumar. I’m a Cookery Book Author, Food Consultant and Culinary Historian. I’ve authored 7 Recipe books on Anglo-Indian Cuisine. My area of expertise is in Colonial Anglo-Indian Food and I have gone through a lot of effort in reviving the old forgotten dishes of the Colonial Raj Era. My Recipe books are a means of preserving for posterity the very authentic tastes and flavours of Colonial ‘Anglo’ India, besides recording for future generations, the unique heritage of Anglo-Indian Cuisine. I take up professional assignments and conduct Cooking Workshops and Training Sessions in Colonial Anglo-Indian Cuisine at Restaurants, Hotels and Clubs and large hospitality houses such as The Oberoi Mumbai, The Taj Conemara Chennai, The Taj West End Bangalore, Vivanta by Taj Whitefield, Sujan Luxury Rajmahal Palace Jaipur Sujan Luxury Sher Bagh Ranthambore, Bow Barracks Bangalore, Bangalore Club,Ivy Unwind Resort Bangalore, etc I also assist in organizing Anglo-Indian Food Festivals and Culinary Events besides conducting Cooking Classes for small groups.

I can certainly remember the Teacher in the middle, she was Mrs Monise, and she lived next door to us.
ReplyDeleteOur house and hers was only about hundreds from the KGF School gates.
I played cricket with her son Trevor Monise.

I joined KGf School in 1965 after completing 4th STD FROM SJC. The boys in the photo would have been four years my senior.However i am not able figure out any one.
ReplyDeleteBut one person stands out in the photo, our beloved pinto Sir.Dark and handsom.Loving at the same time firm,and would not allow any fooling around.We would go to his office for picking up a register or buyig a school tie as it was sold in the office.He would address the children not by name but as "son".
He left our School in 1968 For Ethopia.We salute you sir, and cherish the noble ideals which you stood for.
