About Us

Mrs. Nisha Tapde

KHS Primary’s Principal

“Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.”

It gives me immense joy and pride to extend a heartfelt welcome to you all at Dr.Kalmadi Shamarao High School Primary Section.

Here at school, we believe in nurturing not just academic excellence, but also values, creativity and character. As I take on this responsibility, I carry with me a vision – to build a joyful, inclusive and empowering learning environment where every child is seen, heard and inspired to grow.

Our students are the heart of our school. Their curiosity, energy and potential fuel our commitment to provide meaningful learning experiences. Together with a passionate team of educators and supportive parents, I look forward to strengthening a culture that celebrates individuality, encourages inquiry and cultivates compassion.

As we look ahead, I would like to share a few values that continue to shape the heartbeat of our school.

  • We aim to raise not just good students, but good human beings.
  • We encourage self-discipline through understanding, not fear.
  • Every child matters, every voice counts.

‘Together, may we give our students the roots to grow and the wings to fly.’

Let us collectively make every student’s school journey meaningful and memorable. With your continued trust and collaboration, we will be able to create a vibrant space, where our students feel safe to dream, confident to explore and inspired to become the best version of themselves.

Our Vision

We put emphasis on the big picture.

What children learn at this age lasts with them for their entire life. Our learning process is based on the following four pillars:

VALUING UNIQUENESS

Every child has great potential and a unique way of perceiving and interacting with the world. It is important for optimum development that this individuality is respected, encouraged and nurtured. We provide continuous guidance and support to every child to fulfil this goal.

HOLISTIC DEVELOPMENT

Academic learning is one component of a good education. We offer extra-curricular activities to enhance the personality and build valuable life skills in our children. With us, children will gain confidence, persistence and resilience in all spheres of their school life. They will also learn to systematically organize and manage time and resources.

VALUE EDUCATION

We endeavour to raise our children in a strong value system which is an amalgamation of the old and the new values, giving our children the best of both the traditional and modern worlds. Our school culture and the positive attitude of our teachers will inculcate a spirit of tolerance and teamwork in every child and to be fair-minded, responsible and humble.

STRESS FREE ENVIRONMENT

We strongly believe that a stress-free environment is essential for optimum growth. Your child will learn by engaging in dynamic dialogues with teachers. Projects and Experiential learning boost the skill building. Innovative teaching methods and a variety of visuals and audio adds to the process of making.

“At the primary level, teachers are highly influential role models who have a deep impact on children.”

Our teachers are trained, qualified and experienced to do justice to this important task. Our quality circle, ASSET – question a day as well as various workshops empower teachers to assess their teaching, identify teaching/learning gaps. They use these platforms and a variety of technology tools to simplify topics for children and make learning enjoyable and interesting.

Feather in our cap!

We are very proud to mention that one of our teachers recently received the “Best Maths Coordinator” award from science Olympiad Foundation, New Delhi based organization.
