BASED ON THE ANNUAL REPORT AS ON 18/07/2009
 
 
"Virtue is knowledge, Knowledge is virtue" is the motto of Socrates, Plato and Aristotle. With this main idea, we started a Nursery School at Shastri Nagar in 1976. The then Chief Secretary and Honorable Minister, Shri. P. Ramachandran, ex-minister of Central Government, inaugurated the School. The Students were taught under the Integrated Nursery System and teacher training was also given.

Following the footsteps of Rousseau, Erasmus, Comenius, Robert Owen and Macmillan sisters of England, we introduced various methodologies to our trainee teachers.

In 1979, we added Kindergarten system of Froebel, using multi sensory and hid outdoor plays, gifts which include gardening, origami, stick work, cubism, clay work, painting, drawing, music, drama, puppets and outdoor activities. Froebel's philosophy is similar to the basic principles of Theosophical society - "Man first should understand himself; understand his relationship with nature, and then the realization of God through nature".

In the year 1981 onwards, we had integrated the Nursery and Kindergarten system with the Montessori system of Madam Maria Montessori, which gives importance for sensory training with sensorial apparatus. This system is spread all over the World from 1907 till date and this new syllabus gives more importance for experimentation, exploration and experience.

Montessori Teacher training facilities the teachers to establish a direct rapport with the budding personality of the little children. This institution also provides all the modern aids and techniques to train teachers who can in turn train the children all over the World.
