Description: Children's Day is a special occasion dedicated to celebrating the innocence, joy, and potential of children. In India, Children's Day is celebrated on November 14th every year to honour the birth anniversary of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, the first Prime Minister of India. Fondly known as Chacha Nehru, he believed that children are the future of the nation and deserve love, care, and quality education.

St. Francis Convent School is a branch of the Institute of the Franciscan Clarist Sisters of the Most Blessed Sacrament. The Institute, a religious society was founded by venerable Mother Seraphina, a great educationist, in Italy. The aim of the society is to educate the youth and care for the destitute. The school was opened on 14 January 1957, with five tiny children, on the convent verandah. As days passed by, the request for admission was so great that accommodation became a problem. Hence, on 10 October 1961 the foundation stone was laid for the school building. In the foundation year the K.G. Section became a co-educational primary school. In 1977, Class VI was added.
