Principal, MVJ International School

Education is a life-long learning process. Learning happens all the time; not only in a pre-designated place called the school. It happens in the home, between home and school too. The home's and school's mission therefore is to provide a learning environment and opportunities to the children as the learners.

"Shaping young, impressionable minds is one of life's biggest challenges."

Education is an on-going, continuous interplay between the five moments of context, experience, reflection, action and evaluation between parents, students and teachers. Let's all be Curious to show our curiosity, Walk a mile to exhibit our compassion, Ask why to evaluate our critical thinking and take challenges, bounce back to show RESILIENCE.
