About the school: In 1846 Loreto Convent, Darjeeling was founded. In 1872 six nuns from the Darjeeling Community led by Mother Joseph Hogan, the Foundress of Loreto, Darjeeling, faced the arduous journey by bullock cart to open Loreto Convent, Lucknow. The need for a school to cater to the less affluent members of the Anglo-Indian Community of Lucknow, led to the founding of our school by our first Principal Sr. Claire Miller. She named the new school, which was blessed on 3rd October, 1904 after Saint Agnes. The following day, St. Agnes' Loreto Day School was formally opened in a rented building on Barrow Road near the Baradari. The present impressive building designed by architect Labanti, was blessed on 23rd November, 1913. The students appeared for the Junior Cambridge Examination.
