30/03/2008 Mr S K Srivastava was given a grand farewell by the alumni association on 30.03.2008. A cricket match was organised in his honor between the alumni and staff  TNA. As would happen, with SK sir in your team you are bound to win. The outcome of the match was not the important part, though for posterity sake it has to be mentioned that the old (pun intended) boys did get thrashed. SK sir or Craft sir as we fondly remember him joined TNA in 1973 , he must have been a bachelor then. He retired on 31-03-2008 after a long and successful inning and  as a grandfather. We would like to thank SK Sir for having been there when we needed him.  SK Sir taught us a lot of things which still come in use today. Every time we pick up the hand saw we are reminded of SK Sir for he was the one who taught us how to use it, he was the Guru who taught us the difference between the hammer and the mallet but that was not all, for he taught a lot of our friends what art was all about -yes ,he is an artist too. That's not all,  SK Sir also taught some of us how to play badminton. He was one of the best badminton players in the state of Sikkim in his younger days. He was a very good cricketer (all rounder) and I am certain some of you must have learnt your cricket from him. Sir also taught me what little I know about photography -that a photograph was developed in a dark room and what a dark room looks like. Now those of you who took technical drawing as a subject will like us to mention that also. When it was time for me to leave school and be a man in this world , I was more than  ready for the harsh world outside ,  for I had spent my last year in school in close proximity to SK Sir and without bias, I must mention he was one of the more successful house masters of Yuksom house. Mr Jigmey Namgyal, sports secy of the association , who also benefited greatly from his association with SK Sir, single-handedly organised the match and dinner . The  dinner hosted in honor of Mr SK Srivastava  at "Flamboyance" Tadong  was a  success. We would like to thank Mr T Wangyal (Tango), alumni for the concessions made. Thank you ,Tango Bhai.
