The Elementary School is dedicated to providing early introduction to the ICSE curriculum for all the students. The teachers are specialists in their own fields and work with the young ones, focusing on providing hands on learning experiences in academics, physical education, library, music, early literacy and English language development. The teaching is child centered. With academics being the focal point of the students’ lives, a range of course books is made available to develop the students’ aptitude in various subjects. Group discussions, nature walks, lab work are a few methods of strengthening concepts. Support is provided in the form of after class tutorials to enhance performance and strengthen concepts. The students as well as teachers
make the most of technology to enrich the teaching-learning process.
The students have monitored access to the internet and learn to do project research and email
communication at a young age. Students are often guided to the library to select books,
do research and learn library skills. The Elementary school builds its collection of
resource materials for the class and school libraries regularly. The N.I.E.
(Newspaper in Education) program keeps the student abreast with current affairs.
Students attend physical education programs to remain active and maintain appropriate fitness levels. Horse-riding, swimming, cricket, football, tennis are just a few of the opportunities
made available to the students.

Students are also encouraged to learn music
and give the Trinity College and ABRSM examinations.
The Art and Craft class
is mandatory as it promotes the creative instincts of the little ones and
provides opportunity for self expression in the form of project work,
model making and so on. The Reading club, Drama club, outdoor club are
just a few of the clubs where elementary students get a chance to practice
hobbies and regularly prepare for school functions and programs, revealing
latent talent and skills.
