Onboard the float

The Surigao del Norte National High School Batch 98 participated the 2008 Grand Alumni Homecoming on September 12, 2008. Approximately 30 individuals from the said batch attended the yearly event. It was hosted by batch 1973 which celebrated their Emerald Anniversary this year.

The celebration commenced with a Holy Eucharistic Mass at the campus then afterward the Grand Parade of different batches rolled out with their fabulous floats and beach-inspired attire. A series of activities kicked off right after like the jampacked Hawaiian Night at the Provincial Convention Center where the individuals of excellence in the service of the province and the country that the institution has produced was recognized.

The jampacked Provincial Convention Center where all the batches gathered.

The night is young and so are we... so we look for a venue that is something noisy, something groovy, and somewhere to exhaust the high adrenaline rush of the batch 98. Mario's Grill (c'mon pay us for this ad) was just right there to host our groove..

Shake that booty

Indeed the homecoming of our school has reached its peak, successfully conducted various activities and produced excellent graduates.

Long live and love Surigao High and we pledge our undying love, Hail alma mater dear".

To the host batch of the 2008 Alumni Homecoming, congratulations for a job well done.
