The Convent of Jesus Mary, Murree is a girls school located in Murree, Punjab, Pakistan. It was founded in 1876, by a French woman named Claudine Thévenet, foundress of the Religious of Jesus Mary, whose sole purpose for the school was to train young ladies so that they make good housewives and women in life. Though this is a convent school yet Islamic studies are studies here as well.
The school operated as a boarding school from its establishment until 2007.[1]
On February 15, 2012, the President of Pakistan approved conferment of Sitara Quaid-e-Azam on Sister John Berchmans Conway, a former teacher of the school, for her services towards education and promoting interfaith harmony in Pakistan.[2]
