Education is our passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to the people who prepare for it today.
Many years ago, in 1991 to be precise, a young woman, a teacher, a mother, a wife, a daughter, had a dream. A dream to embark upon a journey to help working women leave their little ones at a place where they could learn and play in a safe environment.
Thus was born Prakrit, a daycare centre cum pre-school. The rest, as they say, is history, in the midst of the changing landscape of school education in Odisha, over the last three decades.
Armed with undying optimism and in the company of a small albeit growing team that relished every moment of this journey, Mrs Poly led Prakrit to become Mother’s Public School, which has since expanded to multiple campuses.
Today, Mother’s Public School has five campuses, and over 7000 students and is managed by a staff of 750 teachers and other professionals. And the journey continues. So does the joy!
“Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known” Carl Sagan There is never any point in the life of a person when he can sit back and say -“there is nothing more to learn, I can relax with the comforting thought that the universe around me is an open book, I know it all”. Education is not just about the subjects that are learnt and taught in school. First, we all have to be on the same page: children, teachers and parents have to understand education is not restricted to lessons taught in the classroom from textbooks. Parents and teachers must encourage children to ask as many questions as they can, for it is wanting to know that will result in actually getting to know. At Mothers’ each child is accepted and appreciated for his/her uniqueness. I am aware of the tremendous opportunity given to us to create your child’s educational life. We have the opportunity to instil a love of learning that can be nurtured and empowered to grow into something truly beautiful. Our school endeavours to provide children with opportunities to grow holistically and explore the limitless possibilities in their quest for knowledge; where teaching is a pleasure and learning is a joy; where learning and excelling is a passion and culture and values have a pre-eminent place. “Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.” Albert Einstein In my opinion let us all dedicate this year to correcting our understanding of what education means and let us all benefit from this understanding.
A Journey of Thousand Miles Begins with a Single Step.
We instil a passion for learning in our children, encourage them to attempt new and exciting things, and provide them with a firm foundation on which to build. We believe that a successful child is happy. We are dedicated to creating a positive, safe, and stimulating learning environment for children in which all are appreciated. We want all children to love learning, reach their full potential, and become autonomous lifelong learners.
Education not only instils confidence, but it also instils hope, and it is the remedy for permanent peace. Today, the world is facing a “survival crisis” like never before, and we are certain that education is the only tool humanity has to solve this catastrophe. For a child’s complete growth, a comprehensive curriculum and simplified syllabus should be accompanied by good infrastructure. Mothers Public School is now providing yeoman service in the sphere of education and serving the needs of a vast part of society.
