When the missionary work started in the hamlets of Kalrayan Hills, the tribals there were illiterates.  To eradicate illiteracy night schools were started for both adults and the children in the mission houses. Our missionaries could teach them only in the nights as the people go to the fields for work during the day time.

The tribal children who got education in the night schools needed further education in schools like the other children in the plains of our country. As there was not even a single school in these tribal areas, we began to start schools also in the hills. At present we have a Higher Secondary School and an English medium Primary School at Serapattu, a High school at Gurukilamore, a High school at Tharisananagar and five primary schools in some other villages. More than 2532 children are in no way inferior to the other schools in the district.
