A Tour Around The School-2.....
















There are too many pictures i want to share here with all of you........but i am putting up a few .
The first picture is a statue of Our Lady in one corner of the school compound.....We use to come here when ever we had to pour out our agony to Her. One person who i think knew all the secrets of the girls was Mother Mary.

In the Study Hall , we had this huge board showing the world map and on it all the different branches of Loreto around the world......it was a nagging reminder that no matter what , we had to live up to the school's reputation.
The third picture is of the school main bulletin board , where each week the House on duty would put up a theme for the whole week.......this time i saw the kids putting up this to welcome the different branches of Loreto who had come to take part in the school centenary programme.

Well, that's the classic old bell whose ring would remind us of the lunch break......of the last period of the day.....of the end of school session......the 3 mths winter break.......and the most heart breaking of all,the end of our school life......its the same bell that rang then and still rings today......its still kept on the same table.......only time has moved on.
Along the corridors , we had these huge maps hung.....in fact we had some beautiful model maps too which i could not find this time.......we were made to look at the maps at least once a day......no wonder my geography is... ....(now was ) so good. lol!!!
The last picture is of the Parlour......and straight ahead of that is the chapel...which was another place we visited often specially during exams......lol!!
