The Inaugural Ceremony of ISC Department and Solar Power Plant at Loreto Day School, Dharamtala

- A. Gomes

Kolkata: Loreto Day School, Dharamtala, has achieved yet another milestone – leaving an indelible mark in the 138 year old history with the introduction of the ISC department. A special ceremony was held on the 5th of August, 2017, in the School Hall, to inaugurate the ISC Department (Humanities Stream). It was an honour to have Sr. Anita Braganza, Province Leader of South East Asia, as our Chief Guest.

 The ceremony began with an Inaugural dance to welcome the guests. This was followed by
a prayer service, musical presentation by the Junior Choir and a short Power point Presentation, tracing the history of our school from its earliest years, when it was founded by Mother Gonzaga, till the present moment. Sr. Anita, inaugurated the ISC Department as she announced the Official Declaration by the CISCE. Being an ex–student of Loreto Dharamtala, her speech was inspiring and touching as she spoke about the achievements of the school.


The second part of the day’s program was the inauguration of the Solar Panel. Loreto, in India has taken a pledge to make all our schools carbon neutral by 2020. Loreto Dharamtala, is the first Loreto school in Kolkata to achieve their dream by installing Solar power plant cells on its roof.So the school is now functioning on solar energy! “We, at Loreto Dharamtala, take small steps which lead to great destinations”, rightly said by Principal, Mrs. A. Gomes in her speech.
