Skv Matric & Higher Secondary School

Skv is situated out on the road that goes from Tiruchegode to Karur. We are in the M Kanthampalayam area, near Paramathi Velur. It’s a bit of a drive out here, but it is a quiet spot for a school. The Maniyanur part of Namakkal is where we call home. We’ve got the matriculation and the higher secondary classes going on every day. The building is quite large because we have a lot of students coming from the surrounding villages. You will see the yellow school buses on the Karur road every morning. It gets quite windy out here sometimes. We spend a lot of time keeping the grounds in order because it is a lot of land to look after. The kids have plenty of space to run around during their breaks, which is nice. Most of us on staff have been here for a long time. We know the roads and the shortcuts around Paramathi Velur like the back of our hands. The school doesn't feel like a corporate office; it feels more like a big house where everyone knows everyone. We don't have much time for fancy talk, we just get the books out and start the day. The afternoon sun hits the front of the school pretty hard, so we usually keep the shutters down in the offices to stay cool. It's just a regular school life for us. We keep things simple and focus on the kids.
