Girls are ready to go home after classes end at Karachi’s St Joseph Convent in a photograph taken circa 1910.
“On March 18th 1863, the school began with ten pupils, ‘one of whom could write with ink’,” a historical account about the institution says. “During 1911, five pupils, Ethel Raymond, Annie Rodrigues, Eugene Nunes, Mary Lastellino and Mary D'Souza appeared for the Matriculation Examination, and all passed. Ethel Raymond, afterwards Sister Vincent Mary, FC, passed second in Sind and won a scholarship.”
