In 2007, St. Francis de sales school was started in the town.  The parish land being located four km away from the town, the school was begun in the town in a hired building with 32 students. However, after two years the parish lost the school to lay people who were running it. They renamed the school as St Mary’s school. This situation necessitated a new beginning of SFS school at the parish centre in 2008 on a beautiful hilltop.
