Happy Days Tanglin Technical

UPDATE!!!
On 11 Feb 2017, after another 4 years, some of us gathered at SRC again and relived our good times and updated each other our blessed lives. Though with lesser and whiter hair, all of us are still recognisable from our days at TISTS.

10 years, at SRC on 23 Feb 2013, a good 43 years since we left school.
