Kalina would be considered for a senior college in future said Oswald Cardinal Gracias, Archbishop of Bombay. He was speaking at a function inaugurating the Kripa Medical Dispensary at Our Lady of Egypt Church, Kalina, Santa Cruz East. He was responding to an appeal made by Shri Kripashanker Singh MLA, to upgrade the existing St. Mary's Junior College into senior college in Kalina. This would greatly benefit the residents of kalian, Vakola, Kurla and those living on the Central Line.

The OLEP Seva Kendra is starting Yoga classes and Fresh Batches of Basic Computer & Basic Hardware in September. Those interested can contact the Kendra office.

There are many poor students in our school. In order to help them we have started Msgr. Marcus Gonsalves Education Fund. If you wish to help a poor student, you may contribute to this Fund in the school office and get a receipt for the same from the Junior College Office.

Nothing posted.
