The school plays an important role in the development of a child. It is not just about academics but offers an environment where a child learns how to interact, build social skills and develop confidence. For the same, it makes it relatively easier for parents like Anjali Saini, mother of Niya Saini, studying in Nursery at Apeejay School, Panchsheel Park to choose such a school that prepares the students for a globalized worl and promotes their over-all well-being.

In a candid interview, the mother claims that everything in this school is top-notch whether it be the infrastructure, teachers of their teaching methodologies.

What made you choose this school for your daughter?

We were at first vouching for some other school but our perspective shifted when we received a call from Apeejay. Impressed by their extravagant infrastructure at the school tour, we decided to proceed with enrolling her in Apeejay itself.

Are you satisfied with your decision of choosing this school?

I am thoroughly pleased with our choice of choosing this school in particular. Even during the school tour, I was highly convinced. I strongly believe in the importance of a child-friendly school environment, and Apeejay truly fits the bill.

How was the admission process?

The admission process was very easy and smooth. As I mentioned before, we were also given a school tour wherein we witnessed the spacious and well-designed classrooms which further to my overall satisfaction and happiness with our decision of choosing the school.

Does Niya like to go to school?

She loves attending school. I’m delighted to see that my daughter enjoys attending school. Another reason for my satisfaction with the school is that she happily participates without any tantrums. As a parent, seeing your child thrive and do well in school is all one could ask for.

Is she active in extracurricular activities?

Niya is a very active and socially outgoing student. She loves to participate in dance competitions as well as other cultural events held at the school. Moreover, she is also vocal with giving speeches in the assemblies.

How do you support her education at home?

Everyday, I make a conscious effort to engage with my daughter helping her learn many things. I review the daily planner given by her teacher everyday, post which I help her to revise what has been taught at the school. I believe in actively contributing to her academic journey, by not relying solely  on the education provided by the school.

So you attend the PTMs?

Since Niya is the only child, we remain quite attentive to all the feedbacks from the teachers. For the same, I attend all the PTMs that are held.

How do you spend quality time with her?

Me and Niya go out to play atleast thrice a week. Other than that, at home, I have got puzzles and flashcards for her that contain a lot of components. These activities help build her cognitive skills, as for me, books is not the ultimatum to extract knowledge from.

What do you appreciate the most about the school?

The infrastructure and the classrooms built at this school are exceptional. Moreover, the extra curricular activities they offer the students with are also commendable. Additionally, the events are held time and again which helps students to remain engaged.
