The out-going HS Batch, 2026 was given a heart-warming Farewell today with a special programme organised on their behalf.
Senior teacher, Sir Denis Lepcha & the Headmaster, Fr. Michael Singh thanked the boys for trusting St. Robert's with their education, for realising their varied potentials and bringing glory to the School through the co-curricular platforms that we could provide, & for assisting as role models for the juniors to look up to.
As they depart and enter the threshold of manhood and greater freedom, they were reminded of the pitfalls and the challenges that they will face. The School hopes that they will live by the values that they have been taught. Above all, they were reminded that they should live by the Ad Maiora spirit.
Wishing the 2026 Batch the very best and God's blessings,
THE HEADMASTER.

15 students of SRS attended a three days School Nature Camp & Educational Excursion to Bunkulung between 15th-17th December.
The Nature Camp was organized by the Ashoka Trust for Research in Ecology and the Environment (ATREE) under it's Place Based Education (PBE) project.
From SRS 13 Green Scouts along with 2 senior class XI students participated in the camp. In addition 14 students from Panchabati H.Sec. School also participated in the event.
The event highlighted the philosophy behind the PBE initiative in Nature Education providing a forum for the young participants to interact with each other and learn about Nature and their environment.
Mr. Yougesh Tamang, Project Associate, Education & PBE (ATREE) introduced the objectives and activities under PBE and also imparted his knowledge on resource mapping and spoke about the importance of nature education in the present day.
Dr. Saibal Sengupta who was the resource person for the camp introduced the participants to the world of birds, the basics of birding and in addition also made technical presentations on Biogeography of Darjeeling, Biodiversity of the Eastern Himalaya with specific focus on the Kanchenjunga Landscape (KL). Dr. Saibal also briefed the youngsters about butterfly diversity of the region and techniques of photographing butterflies and odonates.
Early morning group birding sessions, exposure visits to community managed farms, pisciculture units, pineapple orchards and apiary farms kept the children busy and engaged in learning.
While the early morning trips aimed at polishing birding skills and documentation the daytime was a mix of technical sessions coupled with butterfly photography and resource mapping and preparing posters for presentation. The event culminated with each group of students making an oral poster presentation on what they had learned & experienced at the camp and how they would take the message home. In the evenings the children gathered around a campfire and took part in cultural singing and dance.
The participating students, teachers and resource persons are all grateful to the Community at Bunkulung, in particular the Bunkulung Apiary &Agro Beneficiary Committee who provided accommodation and fooding for everyone.
All participants were presented with certificates by Mr. Yougesh Tamang (ATREE) who had planned the event meticulously and had a key role in its grand success.

After 2 months of rigorous practice, our Original Major Production, PALAYAN was a resounding success. The shows were held on the 16, 17 and 18 of October in the newly refurbished auditorium to audiences that comprised of students, guardians, Alumni, friends, well-wishers, singers and musicians, litterateurs, movie and theater artistes and critics. Many in the audience were moved by the emotions of sadness, love, laughter, and nostalgia that the novice actors evoked. The acting was very-well supplemented by the music and dance presentations. The entire 'Palayan' team received positive, encouraging and inspiring feedback from all who watched. The taste of success was made sweeter because of the fact that, except for a few individuals such as Wangay Gurung. Pranay Singh, and Triratna Pradhan, all involved with the production were novice amateurs. In short, 'Palayan' was the climax of this year's theme-The Year of Performance.

It was a proud privilege for us to welcome Sir CRISPIN CHETTRI (Head Coach, Indian Women's Football Team) among us today.
He was instrumental in guiding the National Team to the AFC Asia Cup, 2026.

The School remains grateful and indebted to him for the invaluable wisdom, the suggestions, the motivation, and the advice that he shared with our boys. ЁЯЩП

We hope that the competitive spirit that our esteemed Teachers have inculcated among our boys will motivate their class-mates to emulate them in the next Term.
We wish the best to all our boys.
May they excel and make their family and all of us in the Robertian Family proud of their achievements.

Today was a special day for the Robertian Family, a day in honour of two great pillars of our School: Sir RAJESH THAPA (Retiree) & Shri SUDEN T. LEPCHA (Jubilarian).
We celebrated the selfless and dedicated service of Retired Teacher and Coordinator, Sir Rajesh Thapa (1994-2024). We bid farewell but you remain in our hearts and the soul of SRS for eternity. Your contribution in moulding and building St. Robert's and its children shall never be forgotten.
We also celebrated the Silver Jubilee of Shri Suden T. Lepcha (1999-2024), who quietly, diligently, and efficiently oils the machine that runs the mammoth that is SRS. Without his expert hands, the School would be severely handicapped.
We bow down to you both, with folded hands, for your immense contribution to the School.
With gratitude and prayers for your good health and peace of mind,
The Headmaster, Staff, and Students. ЁЯЩПЁЯЩПЁЯЩП
Time : 6.:45am
Blessings and formal inauguration of the New Auditorium and the New Chapel.
A Mass led by the Bishop, Rt. Rev. Stephen Lepcha was held to bless the brand new John Mary Vianney Chapel, the refurbished School Hall, and the entire School building.
On behalf of the Robertian Family, we are extremely grateful to Bishop Stephen Lepcha for taking time out of his very hectic schedule to be with us. Heartfelt gratitude also to our patrons, our well-wishers, our students, and the entire Robertian fraternity for your selfless effort to bring fruition to the dream that we had conceived of.ЁЯЩПЁЯЩП ЁЯЩП

March 20: Outdoor exposure visit for students of Class 5 and 6
As part of their English II Project work, students of Class 5B were taken out of the class room by their English teacher and note down ten Nouns, ten Adjectives and ten Verbs from their natural surroundings. In addition they also had to draw a sketch of whatever they saw and liked most.
While Class 5B did the outdoor exercise around the Bishop's House forest, the students of Class 6A and B were taken to the Lloyd Botanical Garden.
March 21: World Forest Day
Students of Class 8C and 8D were taken to the Lloyd Botanical Garden where a brief talk on the importance of Forests was given by Saibal Sir following which the boys were allowed to observe nature first hand. They were also asked to note Nouns, Verbs and Adjectives in Nature and draw a sketch of what they liked most.
These visits were planned in order to give the children a feel of the outdoors and to connect with nature. They enjoyed the brief but fun filled outdoor trip fully. Thanks are due to the Headmaster who permitted the students to be taken out and to the Range Officer, Lloyd Botanical Garden who allowed the use of the Park premises for these visits.
