It has been an amazing day of fun n achievments...

N Mahalingam, Chairman, Sakthi Group of Companies, was our Chief Guest....

Padma Bushan Dr V C Kulandaiswami Chairman Tamil Virtual University and former Vice Chancellor Anna University, Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU), Madurai Kamaraj University

along with Mr P Sridhar, President, Rotary Club of Meenambakkam were our Guests of Honour


Apart from the events and competitions, our children put up a spectacular demonstration of Karate, Yoga and Dance






The children's demo captivated every single imagination :-)




Yoga was equally captivating... As you know, karate, yoga and meditation are a regular way of life for ALL our children every day



Gurukulam has been successfully implementing a reward system... We have a big score board prominently displayed... The school is divided into 4 houses - Red, Blue, Yellow and Green. Any child excelling in something gets rewarded with points and his House gets those points. The score board reads the addition of marks with the childs name... every child is working hard to get his/ her House on top :-)



This year the Overall Trophy has been won by the Red House and Pragadeesh of IV Standard is collecting the trophy from our Chief Guest.


The Guests of Honour distributed all the trophies... This was the pinnacle of the days events :-) of course...


We had a wonderful gift from the Rotary Club of Meenambakkam to top it all :-)

The Rotary Club has gifted us 5 NEW computers and have undertaken to maintain them for life time :-) God Bless the Rotarians...



It was one wonderful day... the kids had fun.... the adults were enthralled :-)

  3. I had the good opportunity of attneding this function. It speaks volumes of the commitment of the trust's commitee members to bring eminent people in the educational, social, industrial and philanthropical arena of society to get to know about the activities of the school, and more importantly for the children and their parents to have a chance to know about a few eminent people.

    I must not fail to mention about the rapt attention with which the parents listened to Dr.V.C.Kulandaisamy when he spoke( in Tamil for the benefit of the parents, so that his message effectively reaches them ) so appreciatively about the English language skills of the school children, especially the vocabulary, grammar, pronounciation and diction of the children as being equivalent of the children of top notch private city schools, and that it is especially so given the fact that the children from this school come from poor families with no family members with such of these skills.
