I am very much delighted that St. Philomena School, Hassan has completed 75 long years of its meaningful existence. I congratulate the Sisters of Charity of St. Bartolomea Capitanio and Vincenza Gerosa who worked tirelessly in the past to impart education to the young girls of this locality.

"Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all" – said Aristotle. This is has been realized by every facilitator of this prestigious institution. This institution has been making constant efforts in providing students with 'life-skills' which is the need of the hour, as handling of life must go along with academic excellence.

The process of education is indeed challenging in the world of today. I positively believe education is a prime tool to help the young to move from where they are to where they ought to be. In this endavour I implore God’s graciousness on all sisters, staff members and collaborators , enthusiastic students and parents. May God’s loving gaze rest upon you all.
