INTRODUCTION

School is a 'Temple of Learning'. It is a place where all children grow, not just in size, not even in knowledge, but in courage, curiosity, independence, resourcefulness, perseverance and competence. And education is the means to the answer of all questions.

HMIS is a well-designed architectural marvel with adequate open space for children to feel 'free and liberated' and an aesthetically designed campus with ample landscapes clubbed with amenities of international standards, an ideal location to pursue quality learning. The campus is scientifically planned, artistically designed and precisely constructed to meet the demand in grooming global citizens.

At HMIS, we are re-inventing education by breaking old moulds of thought. This progressive thinking has led to progressive teaching methods and brought about a tremendous change in how education is imparted.

The opportunities presented during the childhood years are essentially of prime importance in the overall scheme of imparting value based education to the young and it will impinge on the final outcome. The success of a school should not be counted by the quantity of the students it is able to produce per annum, but in the quality of the scholarship being imparted by it and its impact on the students. Generally, school is the place where children are sent to for the purpose of learning the fundamentals and gather knowledge. It is the responsibility of the educators to ensure that the children have the ideal setting to do so successfully.

Parents also have a duty to evaluate the institution in which they wish to place their children because that single decision will have an impact on the child's future performance in life.

It is said that the social and emotional environment is an invisible teacher. Children react to the environment which is a composite of many factors and particular aspects of the environment effect changes in particular areas of the cognitive development at certain critical points in time and it plays a crucial and influential role in the cognitive development process of the child. These environmental factors provide a richly structured milieu of experiences, which affects the child in a far reaching manner, and they might shape and determine many of the child's personal preferences, habits etc., and will consciously or sub-consciously influence many of their behaviours and actions. We are all well aware of the fact that cognitive development normally and naturally takes place within an environment; therefore a lot of emphasis is placed on shaping the school's environment to be 'child-friendly' and 'child-centric'. Such a nurturing environment will enhance their experience and exposure and also will help to increase their self-worth.

At this school, the environment in which 'learning' occurs is scientifically planned and specially created to achieve the stated objectives and the desired goals, sparing no expenses.
