» PTA – SECRETARY’S ANNUAL REPORT 2024
The Association of Past Pupils known then as the Bishop’s College Association was set up as early as 1896.
Presently this Association is known as the Bishop’s College Past Pupils’ Association. It has grown to a membership base of 4600 members. The year 2022 marks the 126th year of the association.
The BC-PPA which has grown in strength has always been supportive and assisted in various projects for scholarships, bursaries and fund-raisers for the well-fare of the school. The PPA was anxious to gift an Auditorium to their Alma Mater, since the school hall, impressive in its day, was totally inadequate for the contemporary needs of the school. With land leased from the Government, The PPA laid the foundation stone for the Auditorium in 1985. With the rising costs in construction, the project was spread out longer than envisaged but was commissioned for use in 1994. The school, the PPA as well as the Parent-Teacher Association contributed in making this become a reality.
