St. Peter’s School, Mahinagar, Balurghat, established in 2014 with the blessing of Bishop Alphonsus D’Souza, is committed to nurturing excellence in academics, values, and holistic growth. Guided by the motto “Arise, Awake, Achieve,” we strive to transform young learners into confident, compassionate, and responsible individuals.

The name, chosen by the Bishop, honors St. Peter, a disciple of Jesus who, though not formally educated, sought wisdom and the deeper values of life. Our emblem reflects this spirit: the star of divine wisdom descending to enlighten and empower scholars; the book symbolizing scholarship; and the keys, authority of knowledge, all leading to the crowning of humanity in love for God and country.

Inspired by Simon Peter of Cepas, the first Pope born in Bethsaida, whose humility and faith shaped him into a pillar of the Church, our school continues his legacy of resilience, devotion, and leadership.
