Holy Cross High School -Siolim


In front of the Mae de Deus Chapel, Gaunsavaddo, stands the premier educational institution Holy Cross High School, which was a very popular girls convent in Goa, founded by the Congregation of the Sisters of the Cross of Chavanod, in 1933. However since 1977 it has been converted into a co-ed, with only the boarding restricted for girls. Convent School run by the 'Sisters of the Cross'. I too am an ex student of this school and passed out in the year 1974. Today 14/9/06 is the feast. Happy Feast we used to get lovely food and had a nice time which I cannot forget.

I am an ex student of this school. Lived in the boarding for 06 years... didnt really like it then.. but today if i look back i think those are the most cherished memories of my life, i wish i could turn back time... I really love the days i had in the boarding-- The friends, the excitement of going on vacations, the tears when i was dropped back... the love apple tree... which we made every attempt to eat when the tree was laden with fruit.. I miss those days...The best boarding school in the world --- I am what i am today because i was educated here. The people of Siolim are wonderful too... so warm and elite... Totally a different experience.
