• History & Memorable Moments

Four Catalan Augustinian Sisters arrived in Manila from the port of Barcelona, Spain, on April 6,1883 to dedicate themselves to care for and educate the orphans of the 1882 cholera epidemic by establishing the Asilo-Coleglo de Manadaloya. More Spanish Sisters came the following year but the tedious work and social condition of the country forced most of the Sisters to return to Spain with the exception of Sisters Rita and Joaquina Barcelo Y Pages. ^[1]

When the Filipino-American War broke out, the remaining Spanish Sisters were forced to abandon the first Ten Filipino Sisters. In 1899, these Filipino Sisters took possession of the Franciscan buildings in Sampaloc and opened an asilo-colego just in time for the start of classes in June. In 1902, through the beseeching of the clergy, the orphanage-school became a full-pledge academic institution whose specific and extraordinary objective was to provide training and instruction to those intending to pass the civil service exam that the students might be able to teach in the public schools. The first to be recognized of all private schools in Manila, Mr. G.A.O'Reilly, Superintendent of Private Schools, described it "most proficient". Through the years, the school was able to respond to all the challenges that came along. The administrators pushed the limites to make sure that the students are enjoying academic excellence through continued course innovations, faculty development and physical growth. Now on her Centennial Year, La Consolacion College Manila is crossing the threshold of the 21st century by opening graduate studies and medical courses while strengthening information and services related courses. To nurture and continuously hone competitive students amidst the fast-changing global expectations is the primary aim of the school through the pillars of knowledge, skills and professional attitude rooted to very core of cultural heritage. ^[1]
