Infant Jesus Higher Primary School Maryhill, Mangaluru

On the 20th of December, in the year 1938, Maryhill Convent began to form young souls that were infants in the religious life. The Novitiate was inaugurated by Mother Francis. She felt the need of a community and so to meet this need and keeping her goal in mind to reach out to the poorest of the poor, the Infant Jesus Higher Primary School, Maryhill, Konchady Mangalore was started on the 3rd of August, in the year 1939 with 54 poor children on roll from Classes I - III.

The orphanage was started later in the year 1941. The school got permission in 1964 for Classes I-VII. From the beginning the Superiors General and the Provincial Superiors have shown great concern and personal interest towards the School and the care of the children both in the School as well as in the Orphanage. In the year 2014 the School celebrated its Platinum Jubilee.

The following Headmistresses have rendered their dedicated and valuable services in the School. Sisters Eleanora, Stephanie Mary, Marcellita, Mary Machado, Bertine, Florinda, Norma, Claretta, Therese D’Souza, Premlatha, Maria Rosemita, Stella Mary, Praneetha and Maria Sujyothi, the present Headmistress with their love for the poor, dedication and zeal have sustained the fame and the standard of the School.

At present there are 180 children studying in the school. Among them 58 children are from the Orphanage. The children who study here have an attachment to the institution as a homely atmosphere prevails. The teachers are led to imbibe the spirit of caring for the less fortunate, as part of their educational mission. They take keen interest in every child’s all round development and to inculcate good values. The children are trained to grow in leadership and commitment. Those who have moved out of the portals of this institution have become leaders in the society.
