The Convent of Jesus and Mary, Delhi, India, or CJM, is a girls day school in Delhi, India. Established in 1919, it is one of a network of Convents of Jesus and Mary in India, Pakistan, and the UK. ==History== The school was founded in 1919 by the order of the Religieuses of Jesus and Mary, a Roman Catholic congregation, in Lyon, France, in October, 1818, by Claudine Thévenet (Mary of St. Ignatius). It moved to its current building behind the Sacred Heart Cathedral in 1926. It has 2,000 students and is the ''alma mater'' of several eminent women in or from India. Situated near the Gol Dak Khana (Round Post Office), its grounds border the St. Columba's School (for boys). As a result, these are considered "sister and brother schools" and many students have siblings in the other school. Saint Claudine Thevenet was the foundress. The school celebrates her feast day on 3 February. Blessed Dina Bélanger started the congregation. Annual events such as Prize day, Kaleidoscope, sports day etc. are sponsored by the OSA (Old Students Association ). There are quiz competitions and magic shows. Festivals like Independence Day and Diwali are celebrated. The school's motto is ラテン語:''Semper Jesu et Maria Laudentur'', which is Latin for "Praised be forever Jesus and Mary". In India it is categorized as a minority school and starts from nursery going up to class 12. It offers Arts, Commerce and Science as streams after class 10. CJM is known for its discipline. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Convent of Jesus and Mary, Delhi」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
