This school is located near College Street.Beautiful white building of this school can be easily identified.

Many nostalgic moments are associated with this building. One of the oldest schools in the city Kolkata, recently completed bicentenary. The teachers are very kind to the students and education is the main motto here.Thank you to all the facilities and stuff members for gifting me these precious 12 years of my life.

Set up in 1818, this centuries old school was a harbinger of education into the psyche of modern Bengal. Now a reputed Bengali medium school offering education up to the 12th standards, this place carries forward tradition and innovation hand in hand. Has its own huge playground which is an increasing rarity these days. Plus points, the ambiance and the old school architecture.
