I studied in an Anglican public School in India. The environment was colonial. It was a boys school and the staff was entirely either English or Anglo Indian. Caning in front of the morning assembly was a periodic occurence for the older boys generally above class 7.
A colleague and I had sneaked out during the recess, in violation of school rules, to sip a glass of lime juice at the street corner. To our misfortune, one of the masters caught us just as we were coming back. Ofcourse we were reorted to the headmaster, who said he would deal with us later. Nothing happened that day and we went home thrilled.
