" The greatest gifts we can give our children are the roots of responsibility and the wings of independence" 

   by Dr. Maria Montessori.

True to these words, Montessori children are being mounded by trained Montessori teachers. The conventional classroom has been modified into Montessori class room where children have access to all the teaching materials. Here children read, write, count, add, subtract, multiply, divide, pound, wash vessels, stitch buttons and more activities without any stress. The free environment does not limit their learning rather helps them to create new things.

This is a must visit place on the campus to understand learning has no boundary ......
