Mary Ward’s Glory Vision reminds us that God’s glory is found in human beings, fully alive and open to service in new and untried ways.

At this present time we are called to think and act in new and creative ways of doing things and reaching out to our students and people around us. This has helped us to be fully alive even though the situation has been challenging.

I am blessed to be part of Loreto Entally, and have the opportunity to serve here. Loreto Entally has been often referred to as a ‘school with a heart’, and is a special place for many of our students who have not only been part of the school structure but have lived here and made it their home for 10 to 12 years.

Our mission is to promote Holistic Development in students, for the realization of their full potential (intellectual, spiritual, physical, social and emotional). We ensure that our sincere efforts will encourage your child to develop their personality which will enable them to contribute towards the betterment of self, society & the world.

We endeavour to build in our students a value system that would stand the test of time. Truth, courage, determination and freedom must be deeply ingrained in their personality so that they become better leaders of tomorrow.

My hope would always be that we ensure that each child of the school receives love, dignity and acceptance. The faith that parents have reposed in us gives us an additional sense of responsibility and humanity. I thank the parents for their support and I am sure that they would continue to provide us with valuable suggestions in the future.

I gratefully acknowledge the valuable contribution made by the Sisters, Principal, Staff members, Parents, Friends, Benefactors and Well-wishers for their constant love and support to Entally as with this it would be impossible to carry our mission at Entally educating those who need us.

God bless each one.

This year 2018 Loreto Convent Entally will complete 175 years of empowering children . Initially caring for children in creches, to seeing them through school leaving examinations from Modern School Final in the earlier days through National Open School to ICSE and ISC, from Secretarial Courses, Computer skills, sports and a myriad extra curricular activities, Loreto Entally children leave us ready to face the demands of life. The sponsored children in our school and hostel are the ones who have been and are the heart of our endeavours. They are children who with love , patience, and sheer medical and physical care and academic guidance have developed into women who are strong and competent , women who withstand the storms of life, women who are among the strongest of "India's daughters".

None of this would have been possible without the support of our parents, our colleagues and coworkers and most of all our benefactors.

Our prayer remains that God will bless our efforts and imbue our spirits with enthusiasm and compassion for the children we serve. May our students always hold on to the values of " justice , freedom, sincerity and joyful hope " that our foundress Mary Ward held dear.

Our Foundress, Mary Ward, many centuries ago, advised her Sisters thus: "This is Verity (Truth); to do what we have to do, well. Many think that it is nothing to do ordinary things well, But for us, it is."

Today's philosophy emphasizes attention to the present moment, to the here and now. Mary Ward, our Foundress, could be saying the same thing in the above quote. To learn these simple values is to lay the foundation for a life of Integrity, Sincerity, Freedom - the charism of Loreto.

The simple, homely atmosphere of Loreto Entally and the caring attitude of teachers, ensure that children learn 'simple living, and high thinking'.

Entally has a way of capturing the heart and mind, and I am very happy to be here for another year; very happy to have Ms. Jessica Gomes Surana as our new Principal, very happy to interact with our warm-hearted Staff, and indeed very happy to be here for our delightful children.

This academic year, the Staff are undertaking ICT (Information and Communication Technology) Training, and I am hopeful that this will be a catalyst for taking our children forward into a new era of advancement in learning. I know our parents will welcome this innovative face of Loreto Entally. Blessings to the entire Loreto family, and indeed to all who walk this path of Wholeness and Truth.

Loreto Convent School Entally is familiar territory, since I have been working in Entally a few times before. But I am wondrously amazed, on my return, to see the transformation I find in the school. Congratulations to Ms M. King, the present Principal, and the ones before, for the serious focus given to academics, combined with all-round development. I see the girls conducting assemblies, making computer presentations and performing on the stage with aplomb and grace!

Luckily for us, Loreto has an age-old tradition of excellence in all-round education with emphasis on values which are service oriented. Here in Loreto Entally, this aspect of training in service is very evident, with its continual programmes of reaching out to those who are in need. And we are proud to announce that every effort is being made to make education experiential – on learning by doing and seeing, thereby instilling joy and enthusiasm in students to live to their full potential in the here and now. While we also make every effort to catch up with the information and communication technology in schools, we hope to implement positively what Gandhi feared could happen in a ‘Knowledge Society’, where there is learning without moral and humane values:

This is something that we in Loreto would never allow to happen! Our whole philosophy is geared to WHOLENESS, through the cherished Loreto values of FREEDOM, INTEGRITY, TRUTH.

I wish the school and its wider community every good wish for the academic year.
