In the year 1976, after my effort to join a Apostolic School for becoming a Priest failed, I took admission in Nirmala School. Sr. B.A. Fatima was the Principal and Late Fr.Peter Gomes, SFX was Manager of the School. After sometime, Fr. John Camillo, SFX also joined as Assistant Manager and at the same time was teaching us English. I was residing in Nirmala Boys Hostel which was a common hostel for Carmel School. At Hostel, life will begin at 5.00 a.m. by rising from bed and attending daily morning mass at 5.30. Again at evening, we have to queue up in line to Church for evening prayers and blessing by a Priest. English and Science was very difficult subject for me because I came from a rural school of Baratang Islands. Any how, I and a few passed 10th Std in 1978. It being a missionary school had a some difference from a Government School. Main thrust was on discipline. I remeber a few teachers Mr.Emmanuel( Physical Education Teacher), Mrs. Kaur (Hindi Teacher), Mrs.Sharma ( Civics,), Mr. B.B.Singh(Science), Late Mr. Mangra Kujur(History), Mr.Agapit Kujur(Maths), Mrs. Rao(English), Sr. Preeti(Geography).
