Mr. Prabhu Narayan Rai was born on 14/01/1938 in Azamghar in Uttar Pradesh. He was the only son and has a younger sister who lives in Mumbai while his elder sister has passed away.

Mr. Rai was a student of the prestigious Beneras Hindu University. It was at BHU that Mr. Rai was inspired by the ideals and ambitions of his illustrious teachers. It was here that Mr. Rai the teacher was born.

Mr. Rai started his teaching career in June 1960 first at Ratanbhai Pawri School and subsequently at Princess Girls High School where he taught Hindi. He also taught at St. Thomas School in Goregaon where besides Hindi he also taught History and Geography.

Mr. Rai joined St. Stanislaus in 1971 as Assistant Hindi teacher. He was interviewed for 1 ½ hours by the illustrious Master Neeff. At the time masters were expected to wear a tie and jacket while teaching. Mr. Rai started teaching the 5th and 6th Standards and subsequently the 8th to the 10th standard. He retired as supervisor of the Hindi Department.

One of his favorite memories at St. Stanislaus was when he first joined the school at the age of 26. Most of the boys of his first class towered over him and he had to look up to them. This was the time when the school still had the boarding section and the Matriculation examination or Standard 11. However these very boys though full of life were also very obedient.
