Our Patroness

St. Teresa of Avila (1515-1582)

The School is named after St. Teresa of Avila. Though a saint of the 16th Century, St. Teresa is a model for youth in any age and time. Her teachings form the basis of Catholic Spirituality. She lived the life of a contemplative nun and later was named as the “Doctor of the Church”. Allison Peers, who translated her life said, “Her purely human qualities and gifts, the saintliness of her life, the naturalness and candour of her manner and style, these are some of the reasons why her name is not only engraved upon the enduring marble of history but taken on the lips of generation after generation with reverence and love”

Our Foundress

Servant of God, Mother Teresa of St. Rose of Lima (1858-1902)

St. Teresa’s School is the result of a vision, the seeds of which was planted by Mother Teresa of St. Rose of Lima, when she started St. Teresa’s School in 1887. She was a great educationalist and a humane social worker. Her remarkable contribution to the society was empowering women through education. In education, her vision went beyond her times, aiming for the formation of a complete human person with a sense of responsibility to the society and to the nation. She focused on faith formation through education: “Now in India if you want to work for the soul you must begin by training the mind. When their minds are raised and enlightened by education then only we will have true Catholics in heart and mind. Gradual and daily instruction in the truths of our holy faith alone will bear seed”. (Letter 18 November 1895)
