| Panchatantra Tale |
| Once upon a time, there lived a good king who ruled over Mahilaropya. The king had three sons who were not very diligent. As he became older, the king worried about the fate of his kingdom and went in search of an educator who could turn the three princes into able men. His desperate search brought him to the old Sanskrit pundit Vishnu Sharman. The pundit assured the old king that he would teach the young princes everything about life. Thus the king happily gave the responsibility of the three princes to the pundit and continued with his work. Vishnu Sharma, realised that each prince had an individual need, so he assured the king that he would teach the young prince everything about life through a series of stories. Thus came about the Panchatantra, a series of short stories that he would use to educate his young students. |
| In our endeavour |
to create a solid junior school, both architecturally and in terms of resources that embody the Panchatantra belief system, we have devised a closely-knit and secure structure. Our intent is to build it block by block, starting off with a smaller edifice and gradually increasing its size to accommodate a larger number of pupils. |
| In our thinking |
we have tailored a contemporary and meaningful Montessori education. We uphold a learning system which places greater emphasis on human values and the nurturing of the child for life. |
| In our aim, to |
● raise the standard of Montessori education |
| |
● encourage each child to develop a spontaneous desire for learning |
| |
● enable each child to think, feel and act according to his personal convictions |
| |
● foster in each child a sense of personal pride and social responsibility |
| |
● awaken in each child a love for nature and care for his environment |
| |
● foster in each child curiosity and scientific knowledge |
| |
● spur each child to apply his newly acquired knowledge to every day life |
| In our commitment, ensure |
● high teacher-student ratio |
| |
● academic excellence in accordance with global education standards |
| In our emphasis, on |
● inclusive learning |
| |
● value-based education |
| In our resolve |
that Panchatantra will forge enthusiastic and confident individuals, willing to challenge themselves and striving to increase their innate potential! |

Panchatantra is an environment fashioned for children to discover the roots that bind them to their Indian heritage. With the passage of time, borders have shrunk: we all inhabit the global village. In the midst of such rampant globalisation, a need to cherish our traditions and strive to maintain a sense of balance in life has arisen. The Panchatantra team thus strives to educate its young learners to think like global citizens whilst keeping in touch with their own culture.
Panchatantra, encourages children to connect to the elements of nature. For this reason we have devised 5 house teams-
Agni (Fire)
Prithvi (Earth)
Vayu (Wind)
Jal (Water)
Akash (Sky) |
