Social Responsibility at our School
The School has developed a habit of sharing with others and helping persons in need. Initially, the school thought of getting one or more new dresses for Diwali to share with the children in the neighbourhood who could not afford to buy dresses for Diwali.
The school mothers and their wards contributed a handful of rice every day and presented it at the end of the month. The rice collected was cooked into nutritious food and distributed. Such activities of sharing extended to building toilets at single-teacher schools in Thiruvallur, Kanchipuram, and Sriperumbudur.
The next contributions were made to the Prime Minister’s Relief Fund, Gujarat Earthquake Relief Fund, CM Tsunami Relief Fund, Leh and Ladakh Flash Flood Relief Fund, Bharat Ke Veer Scheme, and Michaung Cyclone Relief Fund.
We proudly share that we now collect Re. 1 every day throughout the year, amounting to Rs. 365 per person annually, for the Army Welfare Fund. We were fortunate to get an audience with the Hon’ble Prime Minister and present a cheque for Rs. 40 lakhs towards the Army Welfare Fund.

அன்ன சத்திரம் ஆயிரம் வைத்தல்
ஆல யம்பதி னாயிர நாட்டல்
பின்ன ருள்ள தருமங்கள் யாவும்
பெயர்வி ளங்கி யொளிர நிறுத்தல்
அன்ன யாவினும் புண்ணியங் கோடி
ஆங்கோர் ஏழைக்கு எழுத்தறிவித்தல்
