Elwin Center is a campus with 17 acres of land. A missionary lady Miss.Alice Elwin from England lived in this campus until 1961. She was involved in three kinds of ministries like Education, Medical help and evangelization. After that the campus was used as a Center to train Bible women for our Diocese
In the year 1980, when Rt. Rev .Dr. Pothirajulu was the Bishop of Madurai and Ramnad the School was started by Rev.Thavaraj David and his wife Mrs.Darling Selvabai David. During that time there were no Special School for the Intellectually Challenged people in the Diocese of Madurai and Ramnad.

Government of Tamil Nadu has been giving Rs.200/- per child per month as food subsidy to hostel students studying in this school since 1992. But this subsidy is not given to all the children in the hostel.
Every year a team of doctors are visiting our home and conduct medical check up to our children and give necessary guidance on health and hygiene.
They are trained to take care of themselfs. Training is given to go and work in publications right from school. Thus, many (50%) of the students who studied in my School are working and earning.
Children often trust and feel a sense of belonging in sports environments because these activities promote teamwork, cooperation, and fun. When engaged in sports, they learn valuable life skills like communication, resilience, and discipline.
