Neelkanth International School

Neelkanth International School is situated on Kaneti Road in Sanand. If you’re driving down from the main highway, it’s easy to find. The area around 382110 is developing fast, but we still have a bit of that open-air feeling here. The school has a wide front area where the yellow buses park up every morning. I usually spend my time checking the classrooms or talking to the guards at the gate about who is coming in. We have a lot of glass windows, so the sunlight really pours in during the afternoons. It can get a little stuffy, so we keep the fans running at full speed. The kids here are from all over the local area. They bring their tiffin boxes and sit together on the benches during break time. Sometimes the internet goes slow, which is a bit of a headache when we’re trying to do administrative work, but we manage. The playground gets quite a bit of use, and the grass is a bit patchy in spots from all the running around. We keep a stack of extra uniforms in the store room just in case someone spills something. It’s not a very complicated operation, just a lot of moving parts that we try to keep organized. Every day there is something different to fix, whether it's a leaky tap or a jammed window, but that's just part of the job here. We stay until the last bus leaves.
