The unparalleled exploitation of
natural resources and
channelisation of human
faculties in the present century
has reached a stage where fundamental questions regarding
human values have assumed
paramount importance. The belief
that "Man is the image of God ",
is neither Utopian nor untrue ,
and is alone capable of meeting
the unprecedented threat to
human existence. A system of
education based on this
conviction can unfold human
potentialities and channelise
them for the realization of
internal harmony and benevolence
in man. The unfolding of
consciousness, awakened from the
very beginning of formative
period of human life , through
sincerity, devotion and dignity
of educators, balanced with a
pragmatic approach in upbringing
of the child, can definitely
provide necessary attitudes and
qualities for a full and
fruitful existence in the modern
world. |

young men and women who are not

various fields of life. Its
curriculum aims at educating
young children and imbibing in
them a sense of duty, honesty
and pride the education of man

standards which answer not only
the question "What kind of life
do I want to live?", but also
"What patterns of life is best
for man and how may I contribute
to it?" Children are encouraged
to appreciate and share social
ideals of the school and
community, and to recognize the
value of freedom, in which,
order and discipline are upheld

Students are
taught to seek truth in thought,
as well as in action, and to act
fearlessly upon the principles
in which they have firm faith.
They are kept in intimate touch
with the living present , and
are taught to make the best use
of the wisdom of past in day in
day-to-day affairs.
