Lourdes Convent High School

Lourdes Convent High School has been part of the Athwalines area for quite a long time. If you know Surat, you know this part of town is pretty established. Our building is old, but it has a lot of character, and we try to keep it in good shape. There’s always something that needs fixing, whether it’s a leaky pipe in the washroom or a creaky window in one of the upstairs rooms. We don't spend money on flashy things. Instead, we just focus on the daily routine. The morning assembly is usually the quietest time of the day before everyone heads to their classrooms. We have a lot of teachers who have been here for decades, so they know exactly how everything works. It’s not a fancy place, just a regular school where kids come to study. You’ll see the uniforms all over the neighborhood in the afternoons. We handle the usual school problems like lost sweaters or forgotten lunchboxes every single day. The staff room is usually a mess of papers and half-empty tea cups, which is just how it is when you’re busy. We don’t put on airs or try to be something we’re not. We are just a local school in Athwalines, doing the same work we’ve been doing for years and years. It’s a lot of work, but it’s what we know and we are comfortable with the way things are run here.
