Volunteer work in India
A former student has been inspired to help under-privileged children at one of Loreto’s partner schools in India.
In the run-up to Christmas Jasmine Dale will be working in one of the busiest areas of Kolkata at the Loreto Sealdah school, which is not only a girls school but a resource centre for the city’s poorest of the poor.
Jasmine came to Loreto from Longendale Community College in 2007 and is currently studying medicine at the University of St Andrews. While at Loreto she was active in charity work which included helping at the college’s homeless people’s party, organising a sports week for disabled and able- bodied children plus serving as a youth representative on her local council.Sister Kathryn said Jasmine arrived safely in Kolkata on Monday morning.
“She will be working with Sister Cyril and the Rainbow children of Loreto Sealdah until 24 December when she returns home,” said Sister Kathryn
“We send our best wishes and prayers to Jasmine and all those whom she will meet while she is in India.”
Half of the 1,400 pupils attending Loreto Sealdah live in slum areas and the school provides them with free tuition, food, clothing, rent, medicine, while the other half come from better-off homes where parents can afford to pay a small fee.
