Introduction
St. Mary’s School, Biratnagar was established in 2008. It is under the management of the sisters of the Institute of the blessed Virgin Mary (officially recognized as “The congregation of Jesus”) founded by an English lady, Mary Ward, in 1609. It is an international institution especially devoted to the education of youth. The institution is open to girls of all communities, irrespective of status, caste, creed and religion. The school imparts not only integrated personality by developing in them a strong character, love of truth, respect, loyalty, a sense of justice and the necessity for honest hard work. This will make them an honour to womanhood and a source of happiness and blessing to all with whom they come in contact.
We, the Mary Ward women in the education ministry, keeping Jesus as our model, aim at forming fearless and vibrant citizens, who are able to face the challenges of life.
Believing that education is a powerful agent of social transformation, we move towards the empowerment of women and formation of students inculcating in them a sense of justice religious tolerance, compassion and love.
Making them aware of the value system of the world in which they live in, they are enabled to analyse it critically and make responsible decisions for themselves.
They are led to appreciate God’s creation, value life, human dignity and potential and thus to pursue fullness of life.
