McCluskiegunj was founded on 16th May 1933 by Mr E.T.McCluskie one of the founder members of the Colonization Society of India. This Society had acquired 10,000 acres of virgin land from the Ratu Maharaja on a perpetual lease to essentially establish a "Mooluck" or Homeland for the Anglo Indian community. It comprised of several villages - prominent among them are :-Lapra, Konka, Hesalong&Mayapur. McCluskiegunj is located on the Chotanagpur plateau at an elevation of 1500 - 2000 ft. above sea level, and is about 60 kms. from Ranchi town, and therefore enjoys a comfortable and moderate climate. This tribal hamlet is well connected by rail and road as well. McCluskiegunj is located on the Barkakhana loop line of the Indian Railways. This school is located in the beautiful and scenic Chotanagpur hills. The excellent temperate climate in summer and chilled winter, fresh surroundings, plenty of vegetation, fresh air and the notable absence of any pollution makes it an ideal location for an educational institution. McCluskiegunj has been declared as an official Tourist Centre of the Jharkhand State Government.
