Welcome to Nithyadar School

Nithyadar Parish was established in 1993.  However there was no good school either in the Parish nor in the neighbourhood.  As a result, most of the children had to go to Mangaluru to pursue their studies.  Under these trying circumstances, with the leadership of Rev. Fr. Alban D’Souza and Parish Pastoral Council L.K.G class was commenced

In 2000 the Education Department granted permission to start  primary school.  For a few years the classes were conducted in the Church Hall.  From June 2001 Dominican sisters came to Nithyadar and a sister took over the responsibility of an H. M in the school.  The number of students went on increasing and we felt the need of a building.  The laying of the foundation stone was done on February, 2002 Inauguration and Blessing of the new school building was held on 15th October 2005.
