Maruthi Public School

The school is situated in Melekote, specifically in the Abhayapuri area of Tumkur. It is a growing part of town, so there is always some construction noise going on nearby. We have a decent-sized building with several floors for the different grades. Maruthi Public School isn't a very fancy place, but it serves the families in this part of Tumkur well. We have a gate at the front and a small area where parents can wait for their children. Inside, the corridors are usually filled with the sound of teachers talking and the occasional bang of a desk. We spend most of our time in the staff room or in the classrooms. The office is right at the entrance, and it is usually quite busy with parents coming in to pay fees or ask about their children. We have a few cupboards for the sports equipment and the science kits we use for experiments. The weather here can be quite dry, so the playground gets a bit dusty when the wind picks up in the afternoon. We do not have much in the way of landscaping, just the buildings and the paved areas. Most of us have been working here for years, so we have a set way of doing things. It is a straightforward school life without any of the extra stuff. We just show up and do the teaching.
