Prospectus -

Holy Child Girls' High School (recognised by the Board of Secondary Education - West Bengal) is a Private Christian Minority Institution for Girls, established and administered by the Society of The Sisters of Charity. The school does not receive any benefits from the government either in cash or kind under any category and the guardians cannot demand for the same.

Holy Child School as signified by its name is dedicated to Mary, the Mother of Jesus Christ and is placed under her protection. The Sisters of Charity of Saints Bartolomea Capitanio and Vincenza Gerosa dedicate themselves to the service of youth, the sick and the needy, engaging themselves to be a sign of God’s love among people in conformity with the charism of the Institution. The institution from the beginning has developed a profound consciousness that education of the youth is a vital component of the charism of its foundress, who held the youth ‘Very dear to her heart’ and committed herself whole heartedly to their personal growth and development so that they would become agents of change for a just society

We after example of our Foundress dedicate ourselves to the education of the youth in schools. We make constant and careful endeavours to :

  • Make the students aware of their intellectual, creative and aesthetic faculties
  • Cultivate in them love and appreciation for their culture and tradition
  • Train them to make correct use of their judgement, will and affectivity
  • Inculcate in them a sense of values
  • Foster in them a sense of awareness
  • Prepare them for future career
  • Develop a well-balanced personality for the good of the society and for the building up of a better world, where love, fellowship and service might prevail.
