The Aalam Coimbatore

In quiet corners and open halls,
our children’s imaginations found form.
in line, in colour, in wood & clay, in question.

The art expo this year was more than walls hung with pictures. It held stories sculpted by small hands, science crawling into carpentry, theatre whispering through installations,
and a few humble pieces from teachers who still dared!

Thank you to all who walked through and acknowledged.

This time, we chose an offbeat destination for our students, and Odisha unfolded its magic in ways we never imagined! Our journey began with a thrilling two-night stay and trek at Debrigarh Wildlife Sanctuary, surrounded by the serene yet massive Hirakud Reservoir. It was further enriched by an unforgettable birding visit to the breathtaking Chilika Lake at Mangalajodi.

We also delved into Odisha's rich cultural and architectural heritage, exploring the iconic Sun Temple, the sacred Puri Temple, and the vibrant arts village of Raghurajpur. This trip was a perfect blend of nature, history, and creativity reminding us once again that travel is one of our greatest teachers.

The journey began at the District Level in Coimbatore and culminated in a proud achievement at the State-Level Science & Entrepreneurship Event held at the prestigious Anna University, Chennai.

We are thrilled to share that our students secured the 1st and 2nd Runners-Up positions in the International Schools category, demonstrating their creativity and determination.

Here they are, proudly receiving their certificates and prizes from the Honourable Minister of Education, Mr.Anbil Mahesh Poyyamozhi, during the award ceremony! 🏆

A special thanks to their Science Teacher, Mr. Nishanth, for his guidance and support throughout this journey.

We are thrilled to share that our theatre group from The Aalam School was selected to perform their play ‘Utopia Nikalvukal’ at the prestigious National Children's Theatre Festival in Trivandrum this year! 🌟
Our students delivered an exhilarating performance that was incredibly well-received. Proud moment for The Aalam! 🙌

The smiles, quiet pride, and those little moments of connection – these are the memories that grandparents of our kindergarten children carried with them last week.

There’s something magical about watching little hands at work, absorbed in tasks that nurture independence, creativity, and focus. Our classrooms were filled with the warmth of family as grandparents joined in to witness their grandchildren engage with Montessori activities.

From arranging blocks with precision to pouring water with care, it was a joy for our students to share their daily discoveries. For grandparents, it was a wonderful opportunity to see learning unfold naturally, in such meaningful ways.

98-year-old Mrs. Krishnammal Jagannathan, a Gandhian activist and Padma Bhushan awardee, is a living legend of the freedom movement. The highlight of our Independence Day commemoration this year was a special opportunity for a select group of our middle and senior school students to meet and interact with her. Mrs. Krishnammal, or “Paati” as she is fondly called by many, has worked alongside Mahatma Gandhi, Pandit Nehru, and particularly Vinoba Bhave during the Bhoodan movement. The interaction with Paati was nothing short of spellbinding for our children, who continued to remember and talk about her. The instant connection with the students even led to an invitation from Paati to visit her again soon. We eagerly look forward to meeting her once more.
