FOOT PRINTS OF BR.CONRAD D'SOUZA AT

Feb 1954. The bulk of his school life
was in St Mary’s, Mt Abu, from 1962-70.
Then he did two years of college in HR College, Mumbai, before joining
the Christian Brothers in June 1973.
As a Brother, to practice the motto "to do-to
teach" he joined Goethals School, Kurseong, in 1975, before fine-tuning
his teaching skills in Salvation School, Dadar, from 1978-83. Then three years
in St Augustine’s, Vasai, after which he was transferred to St Joseph’s, Bajpe

There onwards he worked in various capacities for
nine years until 1995. In 1986 Sept. he joined as a history lecturer. Then in
1987 as incharge principal and then from

progress of the college. His contribution in constructing golden
jubilee memorial building of the college is outstanding. He was also
instrumental in starting a technical course (JOC) in the institution during
1992.
Being a friendly person he used to mingle with the
students and staff. As a hard task master whenever things went wrong he used to
hit the nail on the head. He was a connoisseur of physical exercise and a lover
of nature, he used to go on long hiking’s with the students.
The institution always remembers him as a true
brother who always upheld humanitarian values in his words and actions. May god
give him good health so that he can contribute more towards the field of
education.
