Bloomingdale International School

Out here in Narayangaon, Bloomingdale International School sits on a decent piece of land. It’s a bit away from the main town noise, which is good for the students. We have a mix of local kids and some from further away. The building is a bit modern compared to the older shops in town. We have big windows in the classrooms. Sometimes birds fly in and we have to usher them out before the lesson starts. It’s a bit of a laugh for the kids. We try to follow a broad curriculum, but at the end of the day, it's about the students sitting at their desks and doing the work. The staff stays busy with paperwork and planning. We have a small kitchen area where we make lunch. The smell of dal and rice usually fills the hallway around noon. It’s a comfortable place. We don’t put up fancy billboards or anything. The name on the gate is enough. We have a bus that goes around the village to pick everyone up. In the afternoons, the place gets quiet once the last bus leaves. We spend our time making sure the grounds are clean and the books are ready for the next morning. It’s just a normal school life here in the 410504 area. We do our best with what we have and keep the gates open for anyone who wants to learn.
