St Sebastian Goan High School in Charni Road, which counts Jeetendra and Rajesh Khanna among its alumni, has been a beacon of all-round growth

Let’s hear it for... St Sebastian Goan High School
St Sebastian Goan High School in Dabul-Thakurdwar is currently in high-energy mode planning and fine-tuning its upcoming 100-year celebrations, starting this month. The headmistress Sister Swarna described the institution of approximately 2,400 students from nursery to Std X as, “A beacon of education and character formation.” The co-educational school, which started admitting girls in the mid-1990s, has an SSC Board.
As the school started in 1925, readies to mark a century, the pride and excitement is palpable,” said Sister Swarna from her office in the school. “We are marking the milestone with a mass by Oswald Cardinal Gracias on January 23 in the church adjacent to the school. There will be a cultural programme post-mass. There are a number of activities being planned throughout the year, like inter-school drama and elocution competitions. This is still on the anvil. We have centenary colours violet and gold. Maroon and gold will be worn at the celebration inauguration and we will close with violet and gold.”
