Sri Aaradhya Vidya Niketan Higher Primary School

Down in Bagepalli, Kolar, you will find our higher primary school. For the local kids, this is a local place. Being part of this community has been our history for some time now. Classrooms open out onto a central area in this simple building. Serving the families in this part of the district is what this small institution does. We have a lot of kids who walk from the surrounding farms. Reciting lessons or playing during the break, the kids can be heard every morning. Basics are covered here, even if high-end facilities are not. Understanding the background of the students is easy for our teachers, who are mostly from nearby villages. Most of our days are spent in the classrooms or under the shade of the trees in the yard. Getting the foundation right for the children is why we focus on the primary years. Dry weather in Kolar can make the school a bit dusty, but we keep it as clean as possible. Teachers often chat with parents who drop by after school hours. The atmosphere is very informal and friendly. Doing what needs to be done to keep the school running is more important than corporate rules. Fixing a bench or buying more chalk are just things we handle as they come. Life is quiet at Sri Aaradhya Vidya Niketan Higher Primary School, and being a small part of these children's lives makes us happy.
