In the early 1990s, during the tenure of the Principal Dr. Fr. Clifton Lobo, much of the school's structure was redeveloped and redesigned. He had a closed-circuit television system installed in every classroom; St. Anne's was the first in Mumbai to have such a system, and perhaps the second in India. Fr.
