MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN
“You can teach a student a lesson for a day; but if you can teach him to learn by creating curiosity, he will continue the learning process as long as he lives.” -R Venkat Rao
An education of the highest quality is the greatest gift that parents can give to their children. We at Loyola Group of Schools consider education as not just an accumulation of facts but it is preparation for life itself.
The aim of our schools is to adopt a systemof basic education in a child-friendly environment that emphasizes knowledge, humanity and sciences and acknowledges the fact that each child is distinctive. We believe that our students need to learn that the secret of success and contentment lies in discovering one’s own strengths as well as limitations. We at Loyola Group of Schools prepare our student not only programmed for “success” but also ensure that they are trained to handle those small moments of failures and making them humans. You would find a wealth of learning opportunities at Loyola Group of Schools that would serve as an essential steppingstone to a fulfilling life and career.
Our school syllabi allow our teachers the flexibility to adopt innovative methods to stimulate interest and attention among the students and develop in them an appreciation for the values of the past, the excitement of the present and the challenges of the future. The aim is to make them successful not only in life, but also conscious of their duties and responsibilities towards their fellow citizens.
I wish the teachers and student of Loyola International School, Oasis Branch great success in the coming years.
MESSAGE FROM DIRECTOR
Greetings! And thank you for your interest in our institution. “Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.” –R Anup Chakravarthy.
What an amazing quote and I realized how relevant it is for all of us: children, parents and teachers. There is never any point in the life of a person when he can sit back and say. “There is nothing more to learn, I can relax with the comforting thought that the universe around me is an open book. I know it all.”
Education is an enduring exercise that can be unbelievably exciting if only we wish to be part of that experience and take a trip to every imaginable place on the earth. To achieve this, firstly we all have to collectively believe in the common vision: children, teachers and parents have to understand that education is not restricted to lessons taught in the classroom from textbooks. Parents and teachers must encourage children to ask as many questions as they can. We want to harness their ingenuity and innovative thinking. We all want to ensure that we create good human beings, conscious citizens and smart people. This is and will always be our long-term vision.
My message to the Principal, Staff, Students and esteemed Parents of Loyola Group of Schools, is to cognise of what education really means and let us all imbibe our values from this understanding.
“Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand. “- Albert Einstein ABOUT PRINCIPAL
