The Association of Past Xavierites, (APX) , the alumni/ae association of the St. Xaviers High School Loyola Hall Ahmedabad , celebrated the Republic Day by attending the Flag Hoisting on the school grounds along with the students, staff, management and guests. Patriotic songs were also rendered by the students.

Later the annual cricket match between APX and HL college alumni was played, this year on the HL college grounds, this is an annual feature on 26 Jan, a traditional and friendly revelry between two premier alumni associations of the city. HL college is a non Jesuit college, so this is indeed a bonding and networking exercise to have between the two associations, and share ideas, thoughts and also partner in awareness and productive programs.
