After 54 years of educational service to the Anglo-Indian community St. Mary’s Convent decided to plunge into the area of education of local girls. Thanks to the far-sightedness and benevolence of his Excellency Rt. Rev. Dr. Jose Alvernaz the then Bishop of Cochin, Fatima Girl’s High School was inaugurated on 1^st June 1943. St. Mary’s Convent Orphanage, one of the first institutions stated by the Canossian Pioneers, was shifted to Fatima Convent campus in 1968. In 1978 one more two-storied building was constructed in the campus to house the primary section, which continues to be known as St. Mary’s Lower Primary School. Fatima School continued to be managed by St. Mary’s Convent, Fort Cochin, till 1983 when a separate community was established in Fatima School campus. Today under the management of Fatima Convent, function Canossa Nursey, St. Mary’s LPS, Fatima Girl’s High School and St. Mary’s Convent Orphanage. These institutions belong to all castes and creeds.
