Batch of 2001, 25 Years Later: Then and Now

For the 58 classmates of the Class XII batch of 2001, Lucknow. Organised by Shalini Srivastava from Bengaluru, with a digital copy for the classmates who live abroad. A fictional batch.

  1. Classmates in their early forties laughing under a neem tree with fairy lights in an old school courtyard, Shalini, Anwar and Lalitha in the centre.
  2. An old, faded colour print of a school class seated in three rows, lying on a wooden table, one boy in the front row with his eyes closed.
  3. Anwar in a white chikankari kurta grinning at the reunion, holding the faded old class photo beside his face.
  4. Lalitha and Shalini hugging and laughing at a long reunion dinner table while classmates raise glasses around them.

Page by page

  1. Cover

    An old class photo beside the group photo from the reunion. You choose from three cover options, such as Batch of 2001, 25 Years Later.

  2. Where we started

    The school or campus, the old class photos, sports day and annual day, from the photos classmates pick and the old prints they photograph. Photos are grouped by year where we can tell, and you can move any group in the preview.

  3. Then and now, one page per classmate

  4. Teachers we remember

    Answers to 'favourite teacher and why' gathered into one page per teacher, so Mathew Sir or Rao Ma'am sees every line the batch wrote. Photos from the reunion, if teachers came, sit on the same page.

  5. Canteen and hostel stories

  6. Reunion day

  7. Where the batch lives now

    A page of the cities and countries the batch is spread across today, by city only, never an address or phone number.

  8. Remembering

    If the batch wants to remember a classmate or teacher who has passed away, the organiser can add a quiet page with a photo and a few lines. We suggest asking their family first.

The questions we ask
  1. For the organiser: which school or college, which batch year, and which reunion is this? (tap: 10, 15, 20, 25 years, or type your own)
  2. For the organiser: what should the book be called? Type a title or tap one of 3 AI suggestions
  3. For the organiser: which moments should the book cover? (tap any: reunion night, campus walk, old classroom, teachers' felicitation, group photo, dinner and music) Anything to leave out?
  4. What do you do now, and where?
  5. Favourite teacher, and why?
  6. The canteen or hostel memory you still tell people
  7. One message to the batch, plus one then photo and one now photo
Best for and styles
  • Organisers of a 10, 20 or 25-year school or college reunion
  • Alumni committees planning a batch jubilee, small or large
  • Batches spread across cities and countries, where half the class cannot travel for the reunion
  • Old class photos that exist only as prints in albums and trunks
  • A keepsake to hand out at the reunion dinner, or send to classmates who could not come
  • Minimal editorial: white space, big photos and small captions, so the then and now pairs speak for themselves
  • Retro school days: cassette tapes, ink pens, tiffin boxes and faded colours, for 20 and 25-year reunions
  • Classic yearbook: navy or maroon, serif type and portrait grids, for college and alumni batches
  • Chalkboard: chalk-style headings on a dark green board, like the front of the old classroom
  • Instant-photo scrapbook: white photo frames, washi tape and handwritten-style notes

Questions parents ask

Is it really free?

Making the book and saving the PDF is free. Printing is optional and paid, and we confirm the price and delivery date by email before you pay.

What happens to my photos?

Photo books are laid out on your device and the photos never leave it. For illustrated books, up to three photos are used once to draw the character and then deleted. See privacy.

What if a classmate does not want to be in the book?

Nobody gets a page unless they add one. A classmate who does not reply still appears in the old group photos, with no page of their own. Anyone who took part can use the 'remove me' link at any time, and the organiser approves every photo and answer before it goes in.

Can we include a classmate or teacher who has passed away?

Yes, gently. The organiser can add a remembering page with a photo and a few lines from the batch. We suggest asking their family first, and the page stays simple and quiet in every style.
