Mrs. Bharati Ponnapa, HOD: Pre Primary Department

The Pre Primary department is where our children have many of their firsts, donning a school uniform for the first time, learning a new language, jotting down notes in their books - every experience seems new and exciting. The very foundation of their academic tenure is set in stone within these four walls. These seedlings spread their roots within the nurturing soil of our department. We do everything in our power to enrich their growth. Most importantly, the time here encompasses the journey of a child from dependence to self-reliance. The aim is to create an environment that is both stimulating and exciting and one which enhances learning opportunities, for my firm belief is that a happy child is the best learner.
