Vikram - your account of those days are quite nostalgic. It was because of Fr.More and his insistance on involvement in extra curricular that Campion School made a name for itself in a very short time. And I remember how people not knowing the actaul name of our school used to refer the school as CHAMPION SCHOOL. Although there the facilities were not the best, but Fr.More's high energy level and commitment made all the difference. And I think he has been able to transfer all that (atleast in part) in all of us

17.04.08 Dearest Campionites, Just remembered the very hot summer days in the good old building of our Campion School where we sat in very simple class rooms with roofs made out of asbestos sheets and just 2 fans turning the hot air round and round. But that that was no reason to complain. If one felt thirsty, one could have a drink of water at outside tempreatures from the famous water fountains installed personally by Rev. Father More. IO truly wonder where did he manage to get them from and why are those not used any more. They were hygenic and permitted to wastage of precious drinking water. And yet, despite the heat, the P.T. and the games periods were anxiously looked forward to when you could also see Father More walking around cajoling everyone to participate in the on going games and ocassionally handing out the golden pinch ! God, it is great to remember those good old days and all the associated fun. Please keep writing in. Best Regards, Vikram Beri (Batch of 1973) Mobile : 0091-98100-48560

I am from the 1964-5 batch of ISC and knew Fr.EF More and Fr.Vicente. Fr.More knew me as a 3rd std.boy at Campion in 1958 and had a profound influence on my life, I still remember us all celebrating his 50th, "Half a Century ago there was born unto us......" went the and I remember song we sang for him. I last met him when he came home in Bombay to see my mother and me and was enroute to Solan and I gave him my Leather overcoat as he said he was enroute to Solan to start a school and it was bitterly cold and later took him to the station to catch his train. I loved him loyally and miss him, RIP father, it's good to know you are loved and remembered by a lot of people.

good keep it up !!!!

Through this site I would like to put forward a proposal to start one/two scholarship (freeships) for the students (std. XI & XII) in Campion School in memory of Father More. The estimated cost for 4 @15000 is about Rs.60,000. I would be grateful if you could give your views to the webmaster.

Hi guys, About 17 of Fr. More's gold medalists met in Mumbai over a year ago and unanimously voiced to meet frequently. However, the spirit never took off for reasons best known to each one. We had a second get together after a few months where the turnout reduced to 10. We are making strong efforts to re-unite the Mumbai boys (ex-Campionites across all batches) once again on the 2nd of Feb., 2008 evening at the Naval Sailing Club, Navy Nagar, Colaba and I would be delighted to have as many of you who could time it to come to Mumbai. I may be reached on my cellphone 09820032695 for confirmations. Looking forward. Bye4now.

Dear Alok Singhai - Kudos to you. Like you there are many who are willing to participate. You would observe that some projects have been identified - please contact the project leader and share your inputs.

Like a true shishya of Father More I dream.And like him I dream Big.And like Fr. More I dream when wide awake.And until I actualise my dreams I have sleepless nights.My current dream is to do something substantive in the Campion School.I will fund to begin with any worthwhile project which would benefit the school,students or teachers.Be it under the FMF or the COBA umbrella.As I am in the US I cannot like Father More contribute with physical effort there.If there be be some good project,committed volunteers I can spring funds.Project Ideas with volunteers invited

I am from the batch of 1988. Even though I didn't have the kind of opportunity my seniors had to interact with Father More but I did have the opportunity to have been to a Scout's camp to Mumbai with him and have lots of good memories of the trip. I do owe a lot to the School which was founded by him. The credit for being where I'm today to some extent goes to him also, him being the founder Principal of the school. I have decided to associate myself with the FMF in some of its initiatives after putting in a lot of thought & with the aim of trying to be able to give back in kind whatever I owe to that great man. What I think is that who so ever considers himself to have been very close to Fr. More should join the FMF and help in bringing back the spirit of Fr. More. Once again wishing all the success to the FMF. Vivek Sharma

Hello All of u. I am from the batch of 85. I never studied under Fr. More but do have the memories of very brief interactions with him when he used to conduct the activities of N.C.C. during our times. The school administration did not have the courtesy to give him the honour & repsect due to him. I owe a lot of where I am today to the school on which I studied and feel that it has high time I give back something to the institution but then could not find the right platform. Then I came across the ideas of FMF and found them worthy of chipping in with my eforts in whatever manner I can till the time I find them to match my wavelength. My sincerest best wishes are with the FMF.
