Mission:

To bring up children in the fear of God, building strong character and strength to meet the challenges of this millennium. Instilling confidence and ability to always be a step ahead of their peers.

Vision:

To lay a sound foundation for lifelong learning.

Our Philosophy:

Teaching is a passionate affair. It needs the genuine interest of the teacher to make a positive change in the behaviour of the learner. Hence we value the three-fold relationship.

Working together helps bring out the best in our children. In our school, we believe every child has strength and therefore must be a success. We remain child focused not neglecting individual differences. The child has the freedom within the limit of our structured school environment to be himself/herself, therefore making school an extension of home. As the name HOLLY we are ever green, ever growing, strong and relevant at all seasons.

OUR GOAL:

Our goals emanate from the national policy on education and a desire to give qualitative education measured by any standard worldwide.
