"Welcome to the official website of Dr. Graham’s Homes, Kalimpong. It is a pleasure for me as the Principal, to introduce the Homes to our many visitors who come to Kalimpong every year to see at first hand, the work of this great institution. It is similarly a great pleasure for me to welcome the many “virtual” visitors who visit our website to get a glimpse of this very unique institution founded in 1900 by Reverend Dr. John Anderson Graham, an institution that has been caring for children for more than a century.Dr. Graham’s Homes was founded in 1900 by the very Reverend Dr. John Anderson Graham, a Church of Scotland missionary, who settled in Kalimpong and worked with the local community for several years during the early part of the 20th century. His original concept was to establish a refuge for poor and needy Anglo-Indian children, who had no other means of support. When he established the Homes, it is doubtful that he could have ever imagined what the institution would be like in the 21st century.Dr. Graham’s Homes is proud of its long and distinguished heritage. We celebrate two very important dates in the calendar every year. The May Fair is a traditional carnival day with lots of interesting stalls where students can display their skills in art, craft and cookery, and performances by the School Band. The Fair also sees the crowning of the traditional May Queen by the Chief Guest who is always an important dignitary. Invitations go out to all parents and children to attend. It is during this time of the year that we also have the annual inter-cottage garden competition, an event which is closely contested as boys and girls, and staff, vie with one another to create the brightest and most striking floral garden displays. The second event is the annual Birthday Celebration marking the foundation of the School in 1900. Held in September, the celebration is spread over two days and includes the annual flower service at the Katherine Graham Memorial Chapel. Apart from parents and local supporters, the Birthday Celebration draws former students, friends and well-wishers from across the world every year. In addition, throughout the year, Dr Graham’s Homes takes part in an extensive calendar of sporting events jointly organised by local schools."... Read more
