History of the school

HISTORY OF THE SCHOOL

The St Joseph of Cluny’s sisters.

On the 12th of May 1807 the bishop received Anne-Marie Javouhey’s vows, and those of three sisters and five young novices.

After settling the newly engaged sisters in the nunnery, the congegration under the patronage of Saint Joseph took the name of Saint Joseph de Cluny.

In 1817, the missionary call felt by Anne Marie Javouhey led way over the 5 continents.
Now there are schools in Africa and most of the other continents.
