St Joan Of Arc International School

If you take the Thohamalai Main Road down towards Somarasampettai, you’ll find us in the Adhavathur area. We’re a bit removed from the main noise of Trichy city, which makes for a calmer environment for the kids. We have a fairly large campus here with plenty of room for all the different grades. The school day starts pretty early, and there’s always a lot of movement in the mornings with the school buses coming in from the nearby villages. Our staff rooms are usually a bit of a mess with stacks of notebooks and half-finished cups of tea. We try to keep a practical schedule for everyone. The kids have their regular classes and then some time for sports in the afternoon. It takes a lot of effort to keep everything running smoothly, from making sure the water tanks are full to fixing the desks that get broken. We aren't one of those expensive, polished schools you see in the big magazines. We’re just a place for families in the Trichy area to send their children. Most of our teachers live nearby and know the parents by name. It feels more like a community than a business most of the time. We just take things one day at a time and try to make sure the students are ready for their lives after school. It is just steady, honest work that we do here.
