The St.Xavier’s High School Loyola Hall ( Ahmedabad ) Primary Section Investiture ceremony, Monday JULY 10th 2023.

The students, management & staff, parents & alumni were present for this solemn & sacred ceremony and were inspired by the presence and motivational words of the Chief Guest Justice Mrs. Vaibhavi Devang Nanavati ( High Court of Gujarat ) who is also a Jesuit alumna and wife of our APX member Devang Nanavati as well.

It is aptly said that leaders are the ones who move forward taking all the stakeholders and collaborators alongside, inclusively & cohesively.

The young meritorious leaders will definitely make it count in the years to come. A fulfilling morning it was on the school campus & marked an important start to many a young leader’s dreams and scope.

Leaders are not born but are created with teaching, experience & grooming.

Our alma mater celebrated Leadership Day where our children were taught leadership qualities.

TEXAS being part of it is always an Honour.

ACP Mrs Serta Denial WCB & DCP Mr.J Parmar were chief Guest & inspired the children with their Thoughts & Guidance.

Thank You For Sudhir SJ.for such a inspirational celebration. JAAG President Mr Jitesh Jariwala was also present on this occasion.

We are very happy to inform that we have reached our target of Rs 10lakhs towards funding the Samuel Kennedy Chemistry Lab at St Xavier's Shrirampur in memory of our late batchmate. We have around 68 plus contributors to the project.A truly combined effort.

In Memory of our classmate Samuel Kennedy who passed away on 3rd April 2023 our batch of 1982 contributed Rs 10lacs to Xavier's Shrirampur for the Chemistry lab to be named as "Samuel Kennedy Chemistry Lab"

Update So here's the story-

Our batch of 1982 was stunned with the untimely passing away of Kenny on 3rd April 2023.
