Dear Friends,

Just rec'd this sad news from Rajat. May God give rest and eternal peace to this kind and genial soul. My recollections of Fr. Welsh go way long back when I was in 8th in DNS and Fr Welsh was teaching moral science to our class. He had a unique way of identifying the students. Through his class placement map in which he recognised each student through the seating place. I was astounded when I came to know about it. I happened to fall sick with measles and did not go to school almost 3-4 weeks.

Fr Principal: Hard lessons learnt

Fr Sebastian Puthenpura, SJ Monday, 02 November 2009 20:37

Friday, October 9 was indeed a ‘Black Friday' for all of us as on that day Atif Mustafa, a 2nd standard boy of our school was cruelly snatched away from us. This was done not by any professional kidnappers, but somebody who knew the boy so well and ironically that caused him his life as the kidnappers realized that Atif recognized them and so they mercilessly killed him! Our hearts go out in deep condolences to the bereaved family that lost its precious gem.

Atif, however, taught us some hard lessons with his own life - that in the present situation nobody, including the school children, is safe; that nobody can be fully trusted as it was his van driver who, instead of dropping him to the school took away and handed him over to the kidnappers; that the public administration is not concerned about the safety and security of the children as the road in front of the school has been blocked for many months in spite of repeated request to open it for the sake of school children; that none of us can afford to be recalcitrant in executing our responsibilities. A costly class indeed! But we will miss you Atif.

Existing rules stipulate that a student should have completed Class XII with physics and maths as compulsory subjects for becoming a flier.
