“Our school,” says Fr. George, “can boast of being the oldest school in the whole of the Middle East and was founded in 1598. Since then, generations and generations of Palestinians have had access to education thanks to our work and mission and still today, ministers and figures occupying the most important positions in civil and political society have attended this school.”
“The Bethlehem school has more than 1200 pupils,” Fr. George continues, “from nursery school to high school. Just over half of them are Christians, of various confessions, and the others are Muslims. There are about 100 people who work in the school.”
“The particularity of our school is that there is no other school in Palestine that can offer such a diversified educational offer: there are scientific, classical, hotel and catering and beauty syllabuses.”
