She completed her education at St. Paul’s Convent School, Dadar in 1973 under the care of the Carmelite Sisters of Trivandrum. And it was while she was employed on the office staff of St. Ann’s High School, Mumbai that she was inspired to join the Congregation of Jesus and Mary. An exhibition on the life and works of St. Claudine which was put up in the school, highlighted the virtues of faith and forgiveness and this ignited the spark in her life and in 1978 she jointed the Religious of Jesus and Mary and made her first profession on 1st Feb. 1981.

She attributed her vocation to her mother and her sister Sr. Paul.

She worked as a Head mistress of the Primary School and simultaneously completed her M.A. she was appointed Principal in 1997 till date. She completed her Tertian ship in 2005.

 Her life has been as exemplary one an open book for one and all to read. Her religious life, she lived to the core, always without fail, bringing in Claudines ideals of love, compassion and forgiveness, so touched and inspired was she by our Mother Foundress. Her life of prayer was enhanced by her melodious singing. Her old Rugged cross still echoes in our ears.

 In her years spent in Baroda, Sr. Delphine had endeared herself to one and all.
