Welcome to Convent of Jesus & Mary

Convent of Jesus and Mary is one of the best schools we have in Shimla. It is a CBSE affiliated school for girls from Nursery to XII. Convent of Jesus & Mary is situated in a place called Navbahar; it is the part of the green belt of Shimla so manages to be one of the most beautiful places in Shimla so far. Convent of Jesus & Mary is the only school which is awarded consecutively every year from the eco club Shimla for its cleanliness and greenery. Chelsea is the name of the campus on which the school is built so it is also called CHELSEA in short.

Value Education and Catechetic for Christians forms an integral part of the School Curriculum. The primary aim of the teaching faculty of the Convent of Jesus and Mary is to make God known and loved; therefore, the spiritual development of all their pupils is of prime concern.

School History

"Chelsea" was founded in 1864. The name of the first Superior was Mother St. Lewis Gonzaga. The school was first founded as an orphanage for the children of British soldiers, who had lost their parents and had no one to care for them, and were sent by the Bishop of Agra to be looked after by the sisters. The Military gave the orphans a small monthly stipend, which helped toward their up keep and education.
