Early childhood is our special concern and we place great importance to the child's learning environment. Our entrance lobby with the colourful interactive display assures the child that this is a place of fun, full of interest and will take care of him. Tables, chairs, counters, even bathroom sinks, are lowered to suit the child's reach and to make him/her confident about coping with the environment.
Library is a gaily-painted doll's house in the second reception area with low shelves, a puppet theater and stuffed toys; it feels more like the enchanting story-telling nook it is. The children happily listen to their teachers and then through comment, song this is re-enforced. Children visit social welfare or charitable service centers where the less privileged live. Special Nature Walks and excursions to monuments are also organised. Such awareness programs are arranged and managed by the school authorities with parent consensus.
A mini Traffic Park complete with signals has come up in their play garden to teach early lessons in road safety.
The toddlers bring out their own monthly magazine to the delight of their parents, grandparents, and teachers.
The "Twinkle twinkle little star" is made, not born we make them young at the Indian School. We find this scheme has helped the child to feel special and unique and made the transition from pre-school to regular school smoother and more enjoyable.
Children are made to feel connected to everything that goes on in the world by being in school. Every activity whether it be the Literary or Environment week, Malhaar or Science Exhibition, filters down to their level with age-appropriate activity.
