The first official meeting of alumni at St. John Berchman's School, Mundli, Tinpahar, was a momentous occasion, signifying a remarkable milestone in the school's rich history. Established in 1939 as a Hindi medium school nestled in the scenic Rajmahal Hills of Jharkhand, India, the institution has always held a special place in the hearts of its primarily tribal students.

The roots of the school can be traced back to the early 20th century when Jesuit missionaries arrived in the Rajmahal Hills. From its modest beginnings as a mission school, it has grown into one of the district's most esteemed vernacular schools, renowned for its exceptional education.

At the core of St. John Berchman's School lies an unwavering commitment to providing top-notch education to the marginalized. It serves as a beacon of hope and a valuable asset to the community, instilling immense pride in its members and embodying the Jesuit mission's dedication to serving the underprivileged.
