History & Objectives
Rabindranath Tagore, the eminent Indian Poet & Nobel Laurate has rightly said that, "The aim of the education is to enable the mind to find the truth, own it and express it, as well."
Indian Institute of Sindhology took it seriously and resolved to bring great poet's ideas into reality. Being practical, it started a school named 'Sadhu Hiranand Navalrai Academy', after two prominent Sindhi reformists and educationists of Sindh, Sadhu Hiranand and Sadhu Navalrai. This School was started on the very auspicious day - Sadhu Vaswani's Birthday on 25th November 1992. The academy was inaugurated by our friend and patron Mr. Chellaram Kriplani (Singapore), along with Mr. Vikyomal Shroff (Dubai) and Ms. Shanti Gehani (Mumbai).
This School has been established with the broad objectives as given below :
* To impart education in a manner that the children unite with their cultural roots,
* To provide moral education for character building,
* To introduce most modern tools and methods in teaching,
* To make leaders of future society, by inculcating in them the value of time management and tolerance towards others,
* To emphasise the need for practical experience rather than rely on theory alone,
* To aim at all round development of the child.
