As we celebrate this Centenary, my heart overflows with gratitude. I think of our visionary founders, our inspiring principals and teachers — especially my dear mother, Late Ms. Kamala Mary, Late Ms Chandra, Late Ms Priscilla — and all the parents and alumni who poured their love and hard work into this institution. Their spirit continues to live on in every classroom, every achievement, and every student who calls this place their own.

As we mark 100 years of excellence, I renew my commitment to the values that St. Francis Xavier School taught me — knowledge, integrity, discipline, and service. This school’s story is not just about education; it’s about transformation, resilience, and hope.

May the flame of learning that was lit a hundred years ago continue to shine brightly, inspiring generations yet to come

With love and gratitude,

This year fills me with immense pride and joy as St. Francis Xavier Higher Secondary School celebrates its Centenary Year — one hundred glorious years of shaping young minds, nurturing dreams, and building futures. Completing a century is so much more than a milestone; it is a living tribute to the vision, dedication, and perseverance of everyone who has been part of this wonderful journey.Our school began with a simple yet powerful dream — to provide quality education rooted in values, discipline, and a spirit of service. Over the years,that dream has grown into a vibrant community known forits academic excellence, co-curricular achievements, and the all-round development of its students.
