Soham International School

Soham International School is located about the 9 Km Stone out on Suratgarh Road. If you’re coming from the Hanumangarh Junction Ho area, it’s a bit of a drive, but most people are used to it by now. I work in the office here and see everything that goes on. It’s a large campus because we have the space out here away from the main town. We have plenty of room for sports and for the kids to just run around during their breaks. The wind blows quite a bit across the plains here, so we’re always sweeping out the corridors. It’s a practical place. We don’t have marble floors or anything like that. Just regular classrooms where the teachers do their thing every day. We get a lot of students from the surrounding villages and the main junction area. The buses are always coming and going. It gets quite hectic in the mornings when everyone arrives at once. We don’t really bother with big mission statements. We just want the kids to pass their exams and learn how to behave. Most of the staff has been here for years, so we’re like a big family, for better or worse. We deal with the usual school problems like broken chalk or lost sweaters. It’s a simple life out here on the road, and we just keep the gates open and the lights on for the students. It is what it is, and it works for Hanumangarh.
