Alumni and Students Unite on the Battlefield

On February 7, the ISHR Strategy Games Club transformed into a tactical command center for a massive Warhammer: The Horus Heresy battle. This wasn’t just a standard club meeting; it was a celebration of our gaming community. Founded in 2007, the club is proudly looking forward to marking its two-decade milestone next academic year!

The energy in the room was electric as the “old guard” returned to meet the new generation. We were thrilled to welcome back a dedicated roster of alumni, including Lennart (Class of 2013), Sean (Class of 2015), Robin (Class of 2015), and Vincent (Class of 2025). A special mention goes to Robin (Class of 2022) and Murilo (Class of 2022), who traveled all the way from France and Italy, respectively, just for the game.

It was inspiring to watch these experienced veterans rolling dice alongside our enthusiastic 5th and 7th graders. Seeing an alumnus from the Class of 2013 strategizing with a current Grade 5 student perfectly captures the unique mentorship and community spirit of this group.

Holding the battlefield together is our Club Supervisor, Mr. Periam. His dedication has kept this tradition going strong for years, fostering a space where students from all grades—and now alumni from all over the world—feel welcome to return for another round of strategy and camaraderie.
