Dear Brother T. Alex,

It is with immense joy and gratitude to God that I write these few lines on the occasion of the Golden
Jubilee of Montfort School, Delhi.

Let me congratulate you, the staff, students, and parents on the occasion of the Golden Jubilee
of Montfort School. I join many others in thanking God, the Almighty, who was the Instrument in
the inspiration, planning, and execution of the project, today we call Montfort, Delhi. “Success is
an outcome of small little efforts put in the right direction”, says one Author. Many hands have put
together their efforts and labored hard to reach Montfort today where it is a shining example of
EDUCATION imparted in the large and narrow perspectives of the world. Many eminent men and
women have passed through the portals of this institution and almost all have become responsible
citizens of our great country and are living their life in an exemplary manner both in and outside
India.

Golden Jubilee is an occasion for retrospection and begins a new ERA. Yesterday was YESTERDAY,
today is a NEW sunrise, giving new opportunities. I am sure that over the coming years Montfort
will let go, dare and continue for the sky. For the sky’s the limit! Montfort should further become
a worthy instrument of the collective force called ‘success’ and continue to become HIS instrument
of change in the lives of many human beings.

I had the opportunity to be a teacher and later Principal - for four years - in Montfort School, Delhi. I
still remember the very first Higher Secondary Batch of 1977 - all the 17 of them are either Medical
Doctors, Engineers or are in the Army or Central Government jobs, who are even today in contact
with me and one another - sharing some of the values that they imbibed from Montfort and their
appreciation for the teachers who taught them and Brothers who were their guides and example. I
am sure that this must be what is happening to the present-day students as well. This is the ‘rip-
pling effect’ that good education can do for the nation.

I wish success in all the programs planned and the publication of Golden Jubilee Magazine and the
blessings of God on the Principal, members of the staff, and students. May MONTFORT SCHOOL
shine in the world like a star in the sky.

God bless us all.

Bro. (Dr.) Mathew Chulaparambil/Montfort
