Ravindranath Tagore said, “The highest education is that which does not merely give us information but makes our life
in harmony with all existence”. Education is not merely acquisition of information but transformation of
individuals into socially sensitive and responsible citizens who will contribute to the building up of a harmonious
society. It is a process of helping our learners to blossom into the FINEST VERSION of themselves.
It is with the vision that every child should become a self -motivated agent of social change, who will become
builders of a civilization of love, peace, justice and reconciliation that SMC has been marching forward for the
past 157 years with its motto held high – ‘Hope Lightens Work’. With profound gratitude I would like to acknowledge
the selfless sacrifice and visionary leadership of all our senior sisters, dedicated service of our teachers,
support and collaboration of our parents that has made SMC Prayagraj stand tall as a premiere institution of
quality that constantly influence and transform the society. At this juncture, I would like to express deep sense
of gratitude to Sr.Jyoti CJ, under whose able leadership SMC has spread it’s wings to new possibilities in the past 5
years. This temple of learning will always remain indebted to you Sister.
Dear SMC Family, today, we live in a world that is surrounded by immense crises on all sides. The deafening noise of
war, environmental degradation, increasing violence and hatred, growing gap between the rich and the poor, the
emergence of a new economic model based on individualism rather than sharing, rising insensitivity and the negative
influence of the social media upon our youth are some of them.
Faced with such huge challenges, let us still dream of creating a better world, a world of peace and harmony.This
will only be possible when our hearts are educated and we are transformed into enlightened human beings with
compassion, commitment, character, competence and conscience to build a humane world. Therefore, with great hopes
stored in our hearts, as a team of committed management, dedicated teachers, enthusiastic students and co-operative
parents, let us march together to build a society that upholds human dignity, equality and compassion. May Mother
Mary our Patroness and Venerable Mother Mary Ward our Foundress shower their blessings upon us!!
Sr. Lissy CJ
