Founders Day
Founders Day
“Founders never leave our memories for they leave indelible footprints on our minds. They give us the reasons to look back and ponder. They give us the reasons to look forward with the hope and aspirations to beating their footprints of distinctiveness.”― Ernest Agyemang Yeboah
The Lourdite family celebrated the Founders day on 4th February 2020. On this day we honoured our dear Founder Late Rev. Fr Bernard D’souza. A great visionary, a legend, a man of profound values, personality par excellence.
The programme began with a prayer to thank God for his constant blessings on us. Jemima of class IV welcomed the gathering. Liya of class VI spoke on the thought for the day that emphasized on the fact that ‘People who shine from within do not need a spot light.’
On this occasion our Principal, Rev Fr Robert Dsouza, Vice Principal Ms Belita Mascarenhas and student representative honoured the founder with a floral tribute and paid homage to the founder.
Brinelle of class enlightened the gathering by speaking on the importance of the day. She spoke on how the great founder believed that nothing is impossible and worked for giving a quality education for the students and to make them better citizens for tomorrow.
The Vice Principal Ms Belita Mascarenhas also enlightened us about – Being Disciplined, Simple and determined the three main elements that Fr Bernard followed in his life to gain success. She further emphasized the gathering to follow the same and achieve success in their endevaours.
