Prayer

O God, loving Father, we sincerely thank your great benevolence, for the very gift of St. Euphrasia who attained sanctity through constant prayer and an ascetic life. St. Euphrasia, dearly beloved daughter of Mother Mary, we entrust to you, each one of us, Mother Church and the whole world.
Help us to offer our sufferings at the foot of the Cross, and to progress in life’s journey trusting in divine providence. Teach us to seek the Kingdom of God and His justice, guide us to grow in love of God and love of others through prayer and a life of mortification.
In all the critical situations of life, especially in this particular need…. St. Euphrasia, we plead your intercession. Amen.
3 Glory be……

The history of Carmel Convent High School is the history of the perennial grace overflowed to us from the bountiful mercy of god. Our Founding Principal, Sr. Clarissa with her ardent Zeal and prayerful vision started a school on 31st May 1984 with three students at Koramangala. There were no English Medium Schools during those days from Koramangala to Sarjapura. Till then good education was a dream for them. Realizing the felt need of imparting better education, we shifted to Carmelaram. This temple of knowledge planted and grown in the fertile soil of Carmelaram was a place of solace for the wisdom seekers from more than 35 villagers. Our humble beginning was in the post office building of O.C.D fathers. The seed sown 1984 sprouted and grew under the providential protection of god Almighty. There are so many memories to recall. The memories of changes and upheavals, of cherished hopes and fulfilled desires, of dreams and realities. A center for social work - Carmel Seva Kendra. Dommasandra is also a part of our apostolic activity. At this juncture of celebrating the silver jubilee of our institution, we look back at its small beginning and its present development. Presently we have 1717 students with 70 teaching and non-teaching staff. It is time for us to recount manifold blessings of god.

GOD IS ALWAYS NEAR ME
God is always near me
Hearing what I say
Knowing all my thoughts and needs
All my work and play
God is always near me
In the darkness of night
He can see me just the same
As by morning light
God is always near me
Though so young and small
Every thought and word and deed
But God knows in all

PRAYER

O! My God / I believe in you / I love you / I hope in you / O my God / bless me to be good / and help me in my studies / bless my father and mother / my brothers and sisters / my teachers / and all my fellow men. Amen.

It was on 13th of February 1866 that our congregation was founded by the combined efforts of Blessed Chavara KuriakoseElisa, a man of high vision and mission, and the Italian missionary Rev. Fr. Leopold Boccaro O.C.D.

Chavara KuriakoseElisa

This is the historical context in which Kuriakose Elias Chavara, a great champion of education in the Syro-Malabar community, rose as the morning star with his dreams and plans for a society in which all would be equal in matters of education irrespective of caste, creed, and sex. Chavara made the clarion call to initiate as a mission of the Church. While he was the Vicar General of the Archdiocese of Verapoly, in charge of the Syrian Catholics, he ordered the parish authorities to establish schools attached to every parish church. Further, he made lessons in Sanskrit available to students of all the classes and castes who wanted to have access to higher education in that line. With the help of the two indigenous religious Congregations which he established, he tried to spread education to all parts of the region. Besides the parish, each monastery started a school.

God, the sources of all wisdom, I surrender myself to you. Oh God, enlighten my intellect, strengthen my memory, give me more concentration in studies. Bless me to remove all fear, distractions and obstacles in my studies and to study with courage and self – confidence and attain great success. Protect and safeguard me, parents, siblings, companions and my country.
Oh, Saint Chavara, through your prayers and services you were dear to God. You provided the setting for our forefathers to sit together and study without the distinction of caste, creed or colour at a time when education was not very common. You knew many languages and you are a friend of students. Oh, dear father, intercede for me before God, the heavenly Father, and obtain blessings from Him for all my needs especially for this particular favour….

P.SAM DANIEL (Parent of S. Faith Jebina - Nursery)

At this juncture, we would like to thank the management for providing an uninterrupted platform to sustain the learning process of each student. Coming to Principal, we would like to thank Sr. Catherine for her commitment towards implementing the steps taken by the management by constantly encouraging and motivating the students and involving the parents to be a part of their learning. In general, we want to thank Carmel for offering a standard platform Microsoft team for online learning. Special thanks for feeding the students with spiritual values through Carmel army activities. When teaching is to be imparted to the small kids, tolerance plays a major role. Mrs. Shoba, class teacher of Nur-A taught the curriculum in an interesting way to the students and induced the young minds through her right attitude by analyzing the capability of each student. We thank her for her passion. Though online class is not going to benefit the student compared to offline class, leaving children unattended makes the scenario worse. Thanks to all for engaging children in a meaningful way. Finally, we want to thank each of you for arranging competitions to bring out the talents hindered in young children acknowledging them with rewards and recognition. Thank You all!! May God continue to help you to serve better.

Our principal has a very important place in the working of the school. She improves the standard education in the school. She is the center figure of the school.

She is extremely noble and honest and takes great interest in her work as well in the welfare of students. She is tuned and guides for students. She is the embodiment of honesty. Teachers play a vital role in our life. An ideas teacher in responsible for the development of the students. They teach us about ethical values and imbibe in our moral values. Teachers shape our personality into something very strong and wonderful. A world without teachers would be definitely a chaotic place. The teachers of our school assume the role of an education and care gives students. They also become our friends and help us with personal problems. They push the students to achieve greater heights and become successful. They treat us like their own children and be the right of our path. They organize various activities that take place in the school throughout the year. They do not favor a particular student and give attention to all.

Principal sister Catherine kind and caring. She beliefs in right knowledge and sharing with a golden heart of inspiration. Her living gives the since of liberation. The different colors of rainbow are our teachers. They represent the innumerable cultures. English teacher, as the open blue sky. Chemistry teacher, who leave us to fly as high. English language teacher, our thorny red rose. Computer teacher, the humorous queen. Physics teacher, the welcoming color of indigo. Biology teacher, un-assuring pillar which echoes. Different colors of these blend in the white cream of Carmel. Our school is built as firm as a rock and we are together as a flock. Silence is complementary. Classrooms are the forts, kingdom of light and love. Carmelites resemble the will of Carmel. Reside in one heart of personal.
