Sivasakthi Nursery Primary School

Our school is at No 1 in the ERP Layout, right on the 2nd Street off Kongu Main Road in Tirupur. Since it's in Thiruneelakandapuram, it’s a pretty easy spot to find. The small building we have stays quite busy with the younger kids. On the racks outside the classrooms, you’ll see little bags and water bottles lined up. We painted the rooms in basic colors and put up charts showing numbers and alphabets. Because it's a school, it's never a silent place. Someone is always crying or laughing or reciting something out loud. Even though it gets hot in the afternoons, the kids still like to run around the small outdoor area during break. Most of the staff are local people who have lived here for years. A big part of our job is making sure the kids eat their snacks and stay tidy. To fit the nursery and primary students, all the furniture is small-sized. Parents often stop by the gate to have a quick word with us, giving the place a very local feel. Instead of a fancy lobby, we just have a small office with the records and a few chairs for visitors. Since spills happen almost every day, having a floor that’s easy to clean is a big help. It’s just a straightforward place for kids to start their schooling without anything over the top. We just do the daily work of teaching.
