The Founder's Day message was delivered by Bishop Dr Anilkumar J Servand, presiding Bishop and chairman, CBS Sudip Bandhopadhyay, MP and Naina Bandhyopadhyay, MLA, were among the dignitaries present. The occasion was also graced by principals and teachers from several schools.

The chief aim is to actively develop the ambition and potential of every student, whether it is academic or any other sphere. The school believes that a student can achieve anything with focus, perseverance and confidence. The Old Boys said unanimously that they owe their education to their founders.
