Bethany Pre-Primary School, Puttur

The need of the English Medium school was felt by the local people of Puttur and on their request the Bethany Higher Primary school was opened on 1st June 2005.  There were 23 students admitted to First Standard and around 47 in Kindergarten.  The school temporarily opened in the old building of St. Francis Xavier Higher Primary School near Little Flower School.  Sr Helen Mary who was the Superior of the community took the responsibility of smooth transactions in view of starting the English Medium School together with the Headmistress Sr Prashanthi.  In 2006 the new plot for the school building is purchased near Pathrao Hospital and the Foundation Stone was laid by the Provincial Superior Sr Inviolata and blessed by the Parish Priest Rev Fr Bonaventure Nazareth.  Sr Agnes Shanthi shouldered the responsibility of administrating infant School Bethany.  At its Infancy the school obtained good name.  Later Sr Celine Petra,  Sr Jyothika and Sr Lavita rendered their committed service.  Now the school is headed by Sr Celine Petra.
