Apeejay School, Panchsheel Park has earned a stellar reputation for its academic excellence, holistic development programmes, and supportive environment.

Mrs. Kantroo shared her experiences and the positive impact the school has had on her children.

Read edited excerpts:

Why did you choose Apeejay School, Panchsheel Park, for your daughters?
There are many reasons why I chose Apeejay. Firstly, it is a good strategic institution with excellent infrastructure. The variety of extracurricular activities offered is impressive, and importantly, the school is nearby to our home, making it very convenient.

How have Adhya and Aishani changed since they started attending Apeejay?
Both of my children have become more confident and their communication skills have improved significantly. Adhya has always been an extrovert, but Aishani was quite introverted. Now, Aishani is more outgoing, participating in assemblies, sports, and other activities. This has greatly increased their confidence.

Can you tell us about their academic and extracurricular achievements?
Adhya and Aishani have both excelled academically. On Annual Day, they were the narrators and also participated in dance and singing. Adhya is in the dance club, and Aishani has chosen robotics. These activities not only make them happy but also ensure they are engaged in physical and intellectual growth.

What do you think about the school’s approach to extracurricular activities?
The school offers a range of activities like sports, skating, dance, and robotics. These programmes are fantastic for holistic development. For instance, Adhya loves dancing, which keeps her physically active, while Aishani is excited about her robotics class. The diverse options cater to their individual interests and needs.

How do your children feel about going to school?
They are very motivated to go to school, which speaks volumes about the environment and the teachers. There are no tantrums or complaints. They are eager to attend and participate in all school activities, which is wonderful.

How would you describe the teachers at Apeejay?
The teachers at Apeejay are excellent and very patient. They manage the children well, even when they are being naughty or difficult. The thematic learning approach keeps the kids engaged and excited about learning. The teachers are approachable, and we can always reach out to them for any concerns.

What is your experience with parent-teacher interactions at the school?
There are regular parent-teacher meetings where feedback is actively sought. We can also call the teachers after school hours if needed. This open communication helps address any issues promptly and effectively.

How does the school ensure the safety and well-being of the students?
The school takes personal care and safety very seriously. There are caretakers for personal hygiene and a medical room with a doctor available. This attention to detail ensures that we, as parents, are not worried about our children’s well-being while they are at school.
