About School: The Convent of Carmel of St. Joseph came into existence in 1967. The first committee members were Sr. Agnes, Sr. Yvonne Marie, Sr. Estella, Sr. Inez and Sr. Elfreda. They lived in a rented house near the Church. The foundation stone of the School was laid, but constructing a School building in marshy land was no easy task. it would cost a lot. Hence a premiere show "The Impossible Years" was screened at New Empire theatre to raise funds for the School building. By 1968 the filling of the pond was completed and a little School with just a ground floor stood in its place. This building was a symbol of the School's humble beginning. It had a rough cemented floor and the classrooms were partitioned with irregular tin sheets. There was no compound wall and a barrier fashioned out of a single bamboo stood in place of a gate, resembling an unmanned railway crossing. The School accommodated around 60-70 students per class in the beginning. The difficulties were many and often seemed insurmountable. But trust and faith in God brought the Sisters success. The Carmelite Sisters of St. Teresa, animated and guided by the sprite of Mother Teresa of St. Rose of Lima, aim at integral formation and liberation of the human person. They strive to actively participate in the redemptive and reconciling work of Christ and communion with the whole of creation through the educational apostolate. To promote the integral growth of each person in her/his uniqueness in order to enable the members of the school community to collaborate with others in assuming responsibility for today’s reality, thereby building a civilization of love(Kingdom).
