WELCOME TO OUR LADY OF THE ROSARY HIGH SCHOOL

Archbishop Don Jose Vieira Alvernaz, Partriarch of Goa, invited Mother Raymund Lulie, the Provincial of India to start a convent in Goa. In April 1954 Mother Mary Bernard, Srs. Mary Damiana, Mary Salet and Mary Assunta arrived at Goa. Initially they were housed in Panjim, Altinho, with the Miranda family. Two days later Patriarch showed our sisters the Parochial house attached to the Chapel of Our Lady of the Rosary, Caranzalem. After a warm welcome from the people, the sisters launched the opening of the needlework-room for young women and girls. They learnt beautiful embroidery and produced excellent work like church articles, dining sets etc. Classes in cutting, tailoring, domestic science and English were also conducted for the girls.
