Motto

VASUDHAIVAKUTUMBAKAM

 

The Sanskrit phrase ‘VASUDHAIVAKUTUMBAKAM’ means the entire world – the animals, plants, resources and mankind – is ONE family and every being is interconnected and interdependent. Our aim is to enable children to gain awareness about themselves, their place in the world, and sensitise them to use earth’s resources mindfully; to create and live in a world that is sustainable and peaceful. Our children will understand that their actions create ripples of change as they think globally and act locally to create a positive impact in the society.

 

With the awareness that we are interconnected, we seek to build compassionate, responsible global citizens who contribute to a peaceful and sustainable future.

 

We aim to shift the focus from “I” the individual, to “we” the peers, to “us” the community and ultimately to “ours” the world we share.

Our Mission

To empower students become life-long learners, to embrace diversity and be adept at 21st century skills by providing a stimulating, culturally rich and joyful learning environment.

Our Identity

The identity of Hari Shree Vidyalayam is inspired by the Sahasrara Chakra. As per the yogic traditions, the Sahasrara Chakra relates to pure consciousness, and it is from this chakra that all the other chakras emanate. The word Sahasrara translates to ‘a lotus with 1000 or infinite petals’. The overall form of the logo also resonates with the form of a glowing sun in our astronomical space. The overall energies emitted by the union of this form and its colours symbolize generosity, focus, leadership, warmth of the community and friendships.
