Jufelhurst School, officially known as Jufelhurst Government High School, is a government school located in Karachi, Sindh, Pakistan.[1] [2] It was founded by Sybil D'Abreo in 1931.
The school building is spread on approximately an acre of land and has two buildings, a playground, and a residence for the principal of the school.[3]
The building of Jufelhurst School is nestled between almond trees and new high-rise buildings in the narrow streets of Cincinnatus Town (now part of Garden East), Soldier Bazaar.[4]
The school was founded by Sybil D'Abreo, a Goan woman, in 1931 in her home located in Cincinnatus Town.[2] [3] Sybil D'Abreo named the school after her parents, Julia and Felix, and coined a word Jufel based on their name's initial letters.[3]
In 1974, the school was nationalized by the Government of Pakistan.[1] [5]
The medium of instruction was switched to Urdu under the Zia administration.[2]
As of 2013, around 1,700 students were studying at the school.[2]
