Academic Excellence with Total Personality Development.” This vision is not just a statement but a guiding principle that has shaped the school’s journey over the past seven years.
The Purple Walk was not just a walk; it was a testament to the school’s commitment to nurturing well-rounded individuals. It was a celebration of the achievements and milestones reached by the school, both locally and internationally.
