Our Mission

One of the most important decisions that a parent makes is the choice of education for his child. An equally important decision that a school can make is to further that choice. At we have taken that plunge. We have given ourselves a mandate to provide each child with a never ending thirst for knowledge. To carry out this mandate we have left no stone unturned to inculcate the `how and why` frame of mind in every student. The school has aimed to commit itself to the cause of holistic education which is focused on the intellectual, spiritual, emotional, physical and cognitive needs of its students.

Our Vision

Our vision is to build our students articulate, emotionally intelligent, caring, outward-looking and tolerant. By the end of this year, the school endeavors to ensure that Technology Enabled Learning becomes an integral part of every classroom. As a service towards community, we aim to achieve 100% literacy in the neighbouring village with our available resources. St. Mary`s School is also committedto plant 1000 trees in the neighbourhood in order to create environmental awareness and sensitivity.

Our Commitment

St. Mary`s School is profoundly committed to exacting high standards, focusing on value education, social sensitivity and spiritual evolution. Our aim is to inspire the love of learning and a genuine respect for all members of our multi-cultural, multi-faith community.
