Chinmaya Vidyalaya, Vaduthala, Cochin
Chinmaya Vidyalayas are run under the auspices of the Central Chinmaya Mission Trust, Bombay, in different parts of the country. The Vidyalaya in each place is administered by a Managing Committee consisting of the local members of the Chinmaya Mission and other interested people in the cause. The School has nursery as well as primary classes in most of the centers. Montessori and other modern systems are adopted in the nursery section. We follow the curricula that is child centered and activity oriented. The medium of instruction is English.
In a growing child, individuality unfolds over the years. Stage by stage his awareness and understanding abilities and capacities unfold as he becomes more and more aware of our world and gradually he moves from the dim consciousness of infancy through the dreamy days of childhood to the intellectual awareness of adolescence and beyond to adulthood. We should assist in this awakening process in the healthiest possible way by bringing to the child the right kind of educational nourishment. This is what Chinmaya Vidyalaya is aiming at with sincerity in the best interests of the children and their future.
