Children who cannot afford a preschool have to go to a regular pre-primary school where each of them is hammered to look alike. Their creativity, their curiosity, their artistic nature faces the axe, to make way for memorization, recitation, and similar other traditional teaching methods.
None of them will probably ever see a light table, or even know that there exists a play-way method of teaching.
Our students will be children of help-staff such as maids, drivers, guards, and any other house helps around the school.
But, like all such initiatives, this one too will remain a lofty ideal unless we get your help.
Please help us set up a pre-school and an early learning center where these ideals can see the light of the day.
We, however, plan to set up a preschool with infrastructure at par with all premium preschools and which caters to all sections of the society.
