La Chatelaine Residential Junior College

In basic human traits the children are far superior to grown ups. Catholic in their choices, accommodative in their approach, adjustable, mostly non demanding ,their minds too full of wonder, enquiry and questions, to bother about things that are fracturing adults' lives. these students have limited needs.

With this in mind La Chatelaine is spread over six acres to provide our children clean and comfortable dorms, Hygienic and sumptuous food, and the best medical care through resident medical team and experts of Vijaya Hospital. There are three dormitories for housing the children, out of which two are air-conditioned .One is reserved for girls.. The dining Hall can take in 700 students and the kitchen covers 12000 sq ft.

Students are grouped according to their interests and abilities..7.30 pm is dinner time and after a leisurely meal they hit the bed at 8.30 pm. Remember they have to get up at 5am in the morning. Early to bed, Early to rise makes Jack a studious boy.. or if you prefer Jill, a studious girl. Saturdays and Sundays are devoted for outings in groups .
