The Himali Boarding School, since its inception, is founded on the premises that each child is different and effort must be made to discover and nurture this individuality. A school obviously demands a certain degree of uniformity to run smoothly, thus rules and regulations cannot be twisted to serve each individual child. A standardized curriculum and routine has to be maintained to ensure homogeneity. But the basic nature, the basic emotional structure, the child innate talents, his/her inherent dislikes and weakness, will be considered and weighed and through diagnostic assessments, formative and summative assessments the uniqueness of each child will be assimilated and addressed.
Parents have placed their faith in the Himali way since 1978. Hundreds have passed out of its portals and have achieved excellence in their field of specialization. Whether in India or abroad Himalians hold prestigious posts in the World Bank, the UN, Intel, Dell, Microsoft, Reliance, the Civil Services, the performing and fine Arts, are doctors, entrepreneurs, but most important of all are human beings who embody the values we have revered and instated – a sense of justice, of compassion, of fairness and truth.
The four fold path – The clarity of vision to Think, the wisdom and courage to Act, the knowledge and expertise to create to Make and the ability to visualize, to foresee and Change.
Welcome to a school whose singular purpose is NOT to create a child conditioned to tackle the Board examinations but whose wider goal is to be educated to face life with confidence, grace and self-reliance.
“FREE A CHILD’S POTENTIAL AND YOU WILL TRANSFORM HIM INTO THE WORLD” ….. MARIA MONTESSORIE
The year 2018 marked the beginning of an era as the gates of “HIMALI BOARDING SCHOOL” after running successfully in the hills , opened to cater to the education needs in Siliguri with an objective of providing an education in character building, leadership, through extra and co-curricular activities along with academic excellence.
I’m delighted that the school’s value align with my own personal values including the importance of trust, respect, perseverance, innovation and a sense of community. We focus on the quality of school life especially for the benefit of our young learners. We also strongly believe in the importance of teachers, parents and administrators collaborating and communicating openly and frequently. Our curriculum emphasizes the acquisition of knowledge, understanding , critical thinking and problem solving abilities for the students attending our school through our various program. We also focus in the ability to apply knowledge which holds the key to gain and develop confidence in a child.
As Ken Robinson said ” The gardener does not make a plant grow. The job of a gardener is to create optimal condition” here in HIMALI SELECT we believe in providing every opportunity to the children which nurtures their interest and equip them with skills to help them cope with their strength and weaknesses.
We believe that every child is unique and special and have an innate ability to learn and it is our responsibility as educators to nurture and develop every child to prepare them for life.
We look forward to serving you and your children over the coming years.
