The Samhita Academy

The Samhita Academy is located at 52, Lakshmipura Village, just off Bannerghatta Road. It’s a bit of a drive into the village area, which means we are away from the constant honking of the main road. The turnoff can be a bit tricky to find the first time, but most people get the hang of it. Being in Lakshmipura Village gives the school a much slower pace than if we were right in the middle of the city. We have some nice open space and the air feels a bit different out here. The building itself is designed to be functional and not overly decorated. We don't have big statues or fancy fountains. It’s just a school where we try to keep things organized and calm. The road leading up to us is a bit narrow in spots, so you have to be careful with the buses. We have a lot of staff who have been here since the start. It’s the kind of place where people actually talk to each other instead of just sending emails. We don't put much stock in being "the best" at everything, we just try to do a good job every day. The village surroundings mean we sometimes see cows or goats near the gates, which the kids seem to enjoy. It’s a bit more of a down-to-earth atmosphere than your typical city school. We just keep our heads down and do the work that needs doing.
