Best School in Gurgaon, Shikshantar School

Open and inclusive spaces that reflect openness to learning.

Enduring respect for children as thinkers and explorers.

Structures and processes ‘led’ by children, experiential education, collaborative work and skilful feedback.

Choices with a purpose that define children as individuals far more than their abilities.

VISION/ PHILOSOPHY

We believe all beings inherently love to learn. Children learn by sharing their discoveries with each other, their teachers and parents.

The vision of the school is to create and nurture a learning community of students, teachers and parents – a community that believes in the possibility of progressive development of children and adults through change in education. Each child is recognised for her own strengths, creating an environment free of judgement and conformity.

It’s a place where ‘I can be me’; true for a facilitator as much as for a student! Our Vision is to enable each child to develop a character that engages with the world with self-worth and acceptance of the other.

Drawing inspiration from the philosophy of Integral Education integration of physical, mental, social, emotional and psychic self of children is emphasised. We believe that acceptance of the self and conflict resolution through dialogue opens pathways to peace.

In the school children and facilitators are both learners; together they discover and construct knowledge. Collaboration is not limited amongst humans; we believe in co-existence and learning to live with and from Nature.

We believe in the philosophy of inclusion and facilitate an inclusive environment for children with varying abilities and from different socio-economic backgrounds.

Christmas Celebration 2024

As the year draws to a close, we find ourselves stepping into December’s chilly mornings, seeking the warmth of sunshine and the joy of togetherness. The gentle hum of Christmas carols fills the air, preparing to bid farewell to the year.

Reflecting on its moments of Joy, Kindness and Gratitude, children from Pre Primary made Christmas decorations and buntings from the paper cutouts with their drawings and thoughts around kindness, joy and gratitude. The children from Sprouting Seeds related to the stories around gratefulness and help through their favourite character, ‘The red-nosed Reindeer’.

The Primary School created a colourful tree of gratitude, adorning it with displays of their messages on experiences around ‘Gratitude’. Clay figurines made by the children reflecting what Christmas represented to them and a beautiful manger were displayed.

As part of their project 'Joy of Giving,' the Class VIII children ushered in the festive spirit by collaborating in groups. They read inspiring stories, learnt carols in music class, and crafted handmade decorations such as trees, wreaths, reindeer, and more in their art class. In the spirit of the season, Class VIII children had recently visited Sugam NGO for an inclusive session where they had facilitated art activities and storytelling. On Christmas Eve the children from Sugam participated in the Christmas Celebration at Shikshantar and the school came alive with their melodious Christmas carols, spreading the warmth of the season. The exchange concluded with enjoying the cookies and sandwiches made by our children and singing carols together, bringing cheer and excitement for the approaching new year.
