“A Glimpse into Grivanvan Education Trust’s Educational Endeavors at K.J. Somaiya Secondary and Sou L.M. Kotak Primary School, Nareshwadi
On December 12, 2023, a visit to K.J. Somaiya Secondary School and Sou L.M. Kotak Primary School in Nareshwadi was organized by Grivanvan Education Trust. The visit took place on a Tuesday from 9:00 AM to 12:30 PM. Vivek Patel Sir provided a unique opportunity to gather valuable information.
Established in 1974 by Somaiya Sanstha, these schools focus on rural educational work for tribal children. The educational initiatives extend beyond standard curriculum, with a children’s home initiated in 1990 to care for destitute children between the ages of 6 to 18, following government regulations. The schools conduct classes from kindergarten to 10th grade, offering various activities such as Warli painting, computer education, sewing classes, and access to a library.
Key figures at the school include Principal Manoj Vanmali and Superintendent V.D. Valvi. The informative visit provided valuable insights into the educational practices and initiatives undertaken by Somaiya Sanstha for the welfare and development of tribal children.
