Celebrating Golden Jubilee – 50 Years

It’s our pleasure to inform that we are completing 50years of service to the society in the field of education.

Both (St. Xavier’s & Mount Carmel) started together in 1969 in the then nascent Gandhinagar to serve the citizens of the city. The schools had the distinction of being the sole education providers to the developing city in the late 60s and early 70s. The entity then known as Xavier’s-Carmel was run from the premises in Sector-20, that hosts the Children’s University presently.

St Xavier’s and Mount Carmel, since then have their separate campuses, in Sector 21 and Sector 8 respectively. More than 50,000 students have since been educated from these schools and most of the citizens of this city are associated with these schools in one way or the other.

We are proud to carry on the legacy of quality education and plan to celebrate its important milestone of completing 50 years.

The year long celebration will begin with the Jubilee Parade on the 15th June, 2019 from Children’s University which will go through Mount Carmel and finally conclude with a public function in the campus of St.Xavier’s school.

We also plan to have an Inter school cultural event in the month of July and an Inter school Sports Meet in December. Some of the leading schools from different parts of Gujarat would be invited to participate in the Jubilee activities.

We earnestly request you to share these glorious moments and be part of the year long Golden Jubilee celebrations.
