A good infrastructure with adequate space makes it a desirable place for students to study and creates a conducive environment for the holistic development of a child. It makes it interesting and motivates the children to come to school. The students always look up to their school as it is the primary location where children spend most of their day away from home. To catch them young a solid foundation for student learning is laid through the nursery school which has activities for all round cognitive and motor development.

Reading is to the mind, what exercise is to the body. The school library contains a wide variety of books and magazines on different subjects which the children can read and gainfully utilise to enhance their knowledge.

The school also has a unique facility namely ITC classrooms (information and technology), which facilitates improved learning through technology. Each of these rooms has smart boards where the students can benefit through interactive educational videos to help them assimilate the classroom instructions better.

Every good school that is tasked with preparing children for their future needs to also teach essential life skills, habits and attitudes that will help them successfully navigate through their life. To do this and provide the best learning experience for students, requires both indoor instructions and outdoor physical activities. In the city of Bengaluru where space is at a premium, the school has a large playground and facility for playing all kinds of outdoor games like football, volleyball, throwball, hockey, basketball etc. An additional massive ground where the school conducts all its events is also available at the disposal of the students.
