St. Mary's Convent High School - School in Goa, Mapusa - North Goa, India

One of the best girls school in Mapusa with experienced teaching faculty. All the staff members; teaching, non- teaching are very helpful and humble people. Best education provided.

A prominent school for girls in the North Goa town of Mapusa. Read more about it in the book *Girls in Green*. As Arlette Azavedo writes in this book: "the good old days, St Mary's Convent at Mapusa was a home away from home for most of us who spent our entire mornings there. Three decades ago, the school was housed in a rented building. It was not very impressive; yet, it was much respected and loved by all who spent time in its classrooms. The floors consisted of wooden planks, whose creaking, as we ran along, made music to our ears. In the monsoons, raindrops came in through the roof; yet we seldom complained. We would simply shift our benches and desks, as though caught up in a game of musical chairs. Such was the sporting spirit. Lessons would go on despite the discomfort. There was no special staff-room for the teachers; the hall was a staff room and meeting place for guests. Usually, the guests would comment on the happy atmosphere in the staff room. Our headmistress's office was just six-by-nine feet in size, in which sat a desk and a chair -- for the headmistress, of course. There was also a mike used for morning prayers and other sundry announcements. News was also read out daily and elocution competitions were held via that same mike. There was only a small stage on the little playground, yet the concerts and competitions held there were of a high standard."
