Sree Narayana Vidyala

Sree Narayana Vidyala is located out on Cholinga Road in Walajapet. It’s a fairly quiet part of the Vellore district, though the road gets busy with trucks every now and then. Our school building is a simple structure that has grown over the years as we needed more space for classrooms. We have a playground that is mostly dirt and some patches of grass, where the students play during their lunch break. You won't find any luxury facilities here, just rows of desks, blackboards, and teachers who have been with us for years. The morning assembly is usually the most organized part of our day before the chaos of lessons begins. We deal with the usual school stuff, like forgotten notebooks and kids who would rather be outside than doing math. Walajapet can get quite hot, so we rely on the ceiling fans and the thick stone walls to keep the rooms from getting too stuffy. Most of the families who send their kids here are from the surrounding villages and small towns. We know most of the parents by sight because they stop to talk at the gate when dropping their kids off on scooters. The office is small and usually has a few parents waiting to talk about fees or grades. It’s just a regular school where we try to get through the syllabus and make sure the kids are behaving themselves. We’ve been here a while and are just part of the local scenery now.
