Appeal from the Principal: Healthcare 2008-09

Principal. Fr. Jude Fernandes

Dear Stanislite,

I write to thank you for your continued support of your Alma Mater.

The Healthcare program for 2007-2008 was a remarkable achievement in the annals of the 150 year old history of St. Stanislaus High School. Your generous support has shown that the values learned during your formative years are still alive. Your act of selflessness has made your teachers proud. They are surprised that the values instilled in their students many years ago still remain and that you still care. This has also set an example for our society in general and for other schools from far and near who look to follow this example. 

Over the last year many of the 94 teachers covered have availed of health insurance provided by you.  It has been one of the most precious gifts that the retired teachers have received and they are eternally grateful. It is my hope and appeal that you continue to donate generously and secure the healthcare needs of the teachers for 2008- 2009.

“Many hands make light work” – sustaining the initiative

As we work in establishing a long-term program for securing healthcare at St. Stanislaus, my appeal now is to help us sustain the healthcare initiative on an ongoing basis and immediately for  2008-2009.It is my hope that each of you will donate generously towards our target of Rupees 4 lakhs. I believe we can reach our target through the power of our alumni network and network of friends of St. Stanislaus High School. I encourage each of you to contact your fellow alumni to contribute to this great cause. Remember no amount is too small. Your gift to your teachers is a testament that our motto "Born for Greater Things" lives not just in words but also in reality.

Independence Day Football 2008

Click here to view original sized images

The alumni of two of Mumbai's top schools battled for top honors on 15th August 2008. St. Stanislaus battled against St. Mary's ICSC on the St. Stanislaus grounds in Bandra, Mumbai.The refree for the match was Stan Lewis.

The match started at a frenetic pace with St. Mary's dominating initial exchanges. This superiority soon resulted in their first goal. St. Mary's continued to dominate and soon scored the second goal. They held onto this lead for the rest of the first half.

The second half resumed with St. Stanislaus rejuvenated. They played hard and fast football and stretched the St. Mary's defense to the limit. St. Stanislaus soon pulled one goal back and continued to dominate and finally equalized in the dying minutes of the second half. A tie-breaker finally broke the deadlock with St. Stanislaus narrowly emerging winners 5-4.

After this absorbing match a sumptuous lunch was organized. St. Mary's brought along some chilled beverages while St. Stanislaus organized some delicious biryani. Delicious starters were provided by St. Stanislaus High School. The lunch was partly sponsored by St. Stanislaus alumni Mr. Charles Dias, Mr Keith Mascarenhas and Mr. Joe Rodrigues.
