About Wisdom Nursery & School
Wisdom Nursery and School was founded in 1989 by Mrs. Bina Dutt with an aim to serve
the society by providing quality education to young children. Bina is a trained
teacher herself and her day to day enrolment with the school still remains intact.
Our motto is to impart quality primary education in tandem with fundamentals of
discipline. We feel that in our country, primary education has not been given the
due importance it deserves. It is our belief that the shaping of personality begins
at a very young age and primary education lays the foundation for further higher
pursuit of knowledge. For this highly competitive world, we need strong focus to
set this foundation correctly. Over the years, Wisdom Nursery & School has emerged
as one of the best schools in primary education in Pithoragarh. We have a team of
thoroughly house trained teaching staffs which continuously raises the bar in pursuit
of excellence.
Pithoragarh – The city of valleys
The school is situated in Pithoragarh which is also the head quarter of Pithoragarh
district. Pithoragarh is the part of Uttarakhand state which came into existence
in year 2000. Uttarakhand district is formed by combining Kumaun and Garwhal reasons.
Up to 1959, Pithoragarh was a part of Almora district. The new district of Pithoragarh
was carved out of Almora district on 24.02.1960. Later, on 15.09.1977 another new
district named Champawat was carved out of Pithoragarh. The present area of Pithoragarh
district is 6852 sq. Kilometers. Two wide valleys constitute Pithoragarh Township
with high ridge separating the valleys. The valleys and the ridge are well developed
with plenty of roads fit for vehicular traffic. The northern boundary of Pithoragarh
district meets China while in the east; Kali River forms continuous borders with
Nepal. The city of Pithoragarh is one of the most beautiful and well spread towns
in Uttarakhand and is an ideal place for studying and browsing. Wisdom Nursery School
is situated in one of the valleys.
Teaching & Grooming
The medium of teaching is both Hindi and English without being unduly rigid about
the selection of the language. The object has always been to see which way students
are likely to learn easily and comfortably. To provide the maximum possible personal
attention to the children, a student to teacher ratio is 15:1, at least for the
nursery and kindergarten classes. As of now, there are 56 teachers in the school
for the classes from nursery to five.
Facilities
We understand that the children learn most when the learning is combined with entertainment.
Our focus is all-round development of children and that is why we have slides, see-saw,
swings and two basketball stands at school. For children, mostly new nursery entrants,
who need some rest time to time, a bed is always kept ready. To take care of the
minor ailments some pediatric medicines are kept in the first aid box, and used
only after consulting the doctors. If occasionally a child soils its cloths, it
is immediately cleaned up to make sure child wears only clean clothes. The school
always keeps a stock of spare uniforms.
The school stands on its own land comprising playing area as well. The overall ambience
provides a welcome feeling to the young ones who come out for the first time leaving
the security of their homes and parents. Almost all the care a fond parent takes
for its offspring are provided in the school but not at cost of their studies. Academics
are the operative word from the day one.
The school genuinely believes that it has been able to satisfy the society and continue
reposing their trust in the school, at least so far as the Nursery and the KG level
is concerned. This school is one of the very few who has to regrettably refuse admissions
for the lack of the space year after year.
The school thanks the Pithoragarh society in general and the guardians/parents in
participation for their continued cooperation all these years and hopes to see a
new height in coming future.
