The angry girl headbutted her older brother in front of their mother when suddenly dropped off by her 18 year-old boyfriend at South Croydon Station (pictured).
Albanian-born Shamet Kreku, 18, pleaded guilty at Croydon Crown Court to assaulting his sister on August 7, last year.
The girl's boyfriend had secretly agreed to drive her to the reunion to then return to the family home with her mother and brother.
"Kreku launched an unprovoked attack on her," prosecutor Bridget Todd told the court. "She was punched to the ground and he kicked her in the head while she was lying on the ground."
She was left with a bruise to her right eye, swelling to the neck, wrist and forearm and grazing to her shoulder.
The girl was treated for her injuries at Mayday Hospital.
She was taken into care, but has since left social services.
The defendant, who entered the UK in 1999 with his parents and three siblings, had twisted his sister's arm up her back when their mother demanded she returned home.
Recorder Nicholas Heathcote Williams QC told first-time offender Kreku: "When she was on the ground you kicked her in the head, neck and back causing bruising."
Kreku was sentenced to complete eighty hours community service, including forty days education and training.
