Our History
The school is housed in a premises that was originally built in late thirties, by a Sikh family. It was realized that most high end schools had moved away from the city centre in Lahore, leaving a vacuum. Great distances had to be covered, from the town centre, to take small children to such schools. It was then, that the idea came up to open such a school, close to the city centre, that, for starters, would cater to ‘Early Years Foundation Stage’. A purpose built, three storey building has been constructed for the school. The building compound has high, secure walls with a nice and safe play area.
Sponsors – The sponsors of ‘Rah School’, have served on numerous boards of large to very large organisations as Chair and as Members. They bring with them a wealth of knowledge and experience in diverse fields, including education.
The School – The school strives to attain and then maintain a level where ‘things just happen without one needing to ask’. As the children grow, it would be endeavoured that they develop close relationships with teachers. The school strives to inculcate a sense ‘to be the best that I can with the gifts that I have’. Effort is made to instil the virtues of enthusiasm and curiosity; self-discipline and endeavour; courtesy; compassion and tolerance; perseverance and service to others.
Teaching – The method of imparting education is a combination of conventional schooling and Montessori teaching methods. We endeavour to provide a caring, safe and friendly environment for the children to play and learn. Child led and teacher supervised activities are at the core of our pre-school learning. The school encourages the creation of an inquisitive mind. Support is provided to each individual child, which allows them to reach their full potential, whatever their abilities.
Teaching staff –The school endeavours to provide competent and caring teaching staff with a strong educational background. The school would like to provide an environment in which the child regards the school ‘a home away from home’.
