HISTORY

Two Apostolic Carmel sisters from Mangalore, Karnataka set their feet in Nesargi – Bailhongal in July 1999. The sisters realized that the mentally challenged children, adults and persons with other disabilities in this region were neglected. Hence the School for the Mentally Challenged Children was started in Nesargi and was shifted to Bailhongal in April 2005 when the sisters found a suitable place.

As the building construction for the Mentally Challenged Children’s School and Residence was progressing in Bailhongal, the public who had tasted the fruit of Christian education in Vidya Mandir at Madanbhavi and Nesargi requested the Sisters to start a regular school for their children. Therefore on the day of the inauguration of Vidya Vikas Kendra, Residential School for the Mentally Challenged Children in the campus on March 31, 2005, the public and the Sisters requested the chief guest of the day, Shri Jagadish Metgud, the local MLA permission for a regular School in Bailhongal which was granted immediately. Thus Carmel Vidya Vikas Preparatory School came into existence.
