My school
Vivekodayam Boys High School
Trichur
Those days in the year of my birth 1947 there were no official recording of date of birth by parents The parents noted down the date and time of birth along with details such as star required for creating a horoscope
Perhaps in schools at the time of submission of application whatever stated by parents and date of birth was taken into account by the school authorities In my case too same must have happened Also naming or Namakaranam was done at home and I was named Vijayaraghavan
I was told my name was not that of my elders like grandparent, uncle etc but that of deity at Triprayar Ramaswamy temple being Vijayaraghavan
Probably my father would have submitted above details of date of birth and name to school I don’t remember my first day in school however I furnish some particulars of the school
It was in Kunnathu lane at walkable distance from our house at Paruvakkat House Shoranur Road Trichur
Some details about the school students and teachers are as under
