Prakriti Valley School

You’ll find Prakriti Valley School at Building No 87-A, which is right near Gol Kotthi in Ambala City. It’s a recognizable landmark for anyone living around here. The school building is an older structure, but we keep it tidy and functional. There’s a bit of a yard in the front where we have some potted plants and a place for the school bus to pull in. The classrooms are spread out across a couple of floors. It gets quite loud during the morning assembly when everyone is gathered together in the hall. We have a small staff room where the teachers sit and drink their tea during the breaks. It’s always piled high with notebooks waiting to be checked with red pens. Ambala City is a busy place, but once you step inside our gates, it feels a bit more contained and quiet. We have some wooden benches that have been around for years, and they’ve seen a lot of students pass through. We don’t go in for anything too fancy or modern; we just use what we have to teach the kids their lessons. Sometimes the plumbing acts up or a light bulb flickers, but we just get it fixed and keep going. It’s a practical place. Most of the families who send their children here live within walking distance or just a short rickshaw ride away. It’s just a normal part of the local neighborhood life, day in and day out.
