It may be safely said that the history of Petit Seminaire dates from January 1844, when Bishop Mgr. Bonwand called the first Synod of missionaries. That was the occasion when the great assembly of priests reviewed the functioning of seminary. It was found that there were only 17 students and the studies were very mediocre except in Latin and Theology. The Synod advocated a series of steps to promote education in general in the Mission.PETIT SEMINAIRE BORN: Petit Seminaire began to function from March 1844 with 89 students of whom 25 were boarders. Only 20 were eclectics students, aspiring for priesthood.
