The CHS Family adds a new Member

Convent High School has officialised the addition of its newest member, St. Josephine Bakhita, aka the Purple House. Although the official feast of St. Bakhita is on February 8^th, the inauguration mass and official launching of St. Bakhita’s House was held on Monday 9^th February 2015. Nonetheless, the celebration was huge success! This momentous occasion was made even more special by celebrating the school’s 157^th anniversary and the International Day of Prayer and Awareness against Human Trafficking in conjunction. The service also served as the annual visitation by the Bishop of Roseau to the school.

The morning’s ceremony commenced with a brief welcome address by Mrs. Andrea Seaman-Williams followed by the entrance of the officiants to the hymn Sing a New Song unto the Lord. The ceremony was officiated by His Lordship, Bishop Gabriel Malzaire, Bishop of Roseau and the school’s Chaplin Monseigneur William Jno Lewis.  As always, our faithful altar servers were present to assist during the mass.
