BCS turns 146

Bishop Cotton School

Bishop Cotton School Shimla is the oldest boarding school in Asia, founded on 28th July 1859 by Bishop George Edward Lynch Cotton, son of an Army Captain. I studied there for 2 years and it was a fulfilling & an enriching experience that I wish I had gone there earlier. Its been 11 years since I completed my school, I have very fond memories of my stay in BCS and does not seem at all to me that 11 years have goneby.

BCS celebrates its 146th founders day tomorrow i.e. 28th July 2005

Keep going BCS
