It was at the request of Rt Rev. Bishop Armando Armando Trinidad that the Apostolic Carmel Sisters from Sri Lanka came to Pakistan as Missionaries to work among the underprivileged people, especially for the education of the children in the basties and colonies.

At that time Nishat Colony had about 600 catholic families, later it rose to 2000 families. Prior to opening a school for these poor children, the sisters along with many helpers visited the families and performed a survey and encouraged the parents to send their children to school. Some of the parents could not think of sending the girls to school, therefore quite a lot motivation was needed.

On the 1st of October 1981, Srs.Dorothea and Theolinde started a school for the Christian’s children of this area in the Church building with 25 children of ages ranging from 5 to 12 and two teachers were taken as helper from Nishat Colony as sisters did not have command over the Urdu language.

The number on roll kept increasing day by day and the Sisters faced various difficulties for accommodation, maintenance of the school and payment of the teachers. The Capuchin Fathers were of great in help in finding funds for this purpose and the school developed from room to room and the number kept increasing. In the mean time teachers were sent for training.

In 1986, the number of students increased to 400 and classes up to 5. The Bishop along with the C.B.E and Caritas came forward and helped the Sisters for the development.

In January 1989, Sr. Kanthi took over the school and the school was registered with the Government. In the mean time, with the help of the Bishop, two plots of land, one with a small house in it, that was adjacent to the school building were bought. This little house was used as staff room and an office.

Along with school curriculum, the Sisters were able to impart to the students values and good habits and prepared them for the sacrament of the first Holy Communication and Confirmation.

In 1994, the number on roll rose to 980 with 30 teachers. By this time, the school was blessed with 10 class rooms, a science lab, toilet block, an office, a library and a staff room.

The same year co-education was introduced in the school, as it was felt that the education of boys was greatly neglected. By taking this step, the management of the school faced quite a lot of problems with the illiterate parents and the Bratheries of the area as they were not ready for co-education.

In 1995, 17 students appeared in the Matriculation Examinations for the first time and acquired very good results. The teachers worked dedicatedly and worked hard to bring this school up to a good standard.

As the school was progressing, another problem the arose. The government required that all the private schools needed to be affiliated with the government and the government rule strictly prohibited co-education. The school was forced to separate the students in two section as Boys and Girls, which meant maintaining of two different registers etc. In 1996, Sr. Raheela worked very hard to get the school affiliated and even today, the school is paying the government a certain amount of money every year for its affiliation.

The principals who worked in this school, besides the above mentioned principals are Sr. Maureen, Sr.Safia, and Sr. Shama. The Sisters who assisted them were Srs. Samin, Saima Yousaf, Saima Muneer and Azmat.
