Loreto Convent ,Shimla

From the Principal’s Desk

From stepping into the portals of the school at the tender age of four to becoming a teacher in 1990 and now donning  the mantle of the Principal of my Alma Mater, my life has come a full circle.

Like the countless alumni I too owe all that I have been able to achieve to my Alma mater- where young impressionable minds are nurtured to discover, grow and build on their individual strengths enabling each one to become responsible agents of change.

 Mary Ward- the Foundress of Loreto Institution worldwide strongly believed that “Women in time to come will do much.” She may have struggled in her time for the education of the girl child but she laid a strong foundation which is contemporary in its approach and still deeply rooted in spirituality.

It is her charism that has led us to foster 21st century skills of the 4cs- collaboration, creativity, communication and critical thinking in all our students. However, the true legacy of the school has been to transform these young women into socially aware citizens with sound ethics, integrity, character and compassion.

It will be my constant endeavour to strive to provide our children with a conducive environment encouraging a spirit of enquiry, commitment to authenticity, perfection and an open and critical approach to the needs of our time.
