Pastoral @ Vandya

At Vandya’s boarding houses, we pride ourselves on nurturing and grooming our boarders with the utmost tenderness and care. We firmly believe that every student possesses the potential to excel in their chosen field, and our boarding program is designed to provide them with the perfect jumpstart towards achieving their goals. Our primary goal is to transform the young children we receive into fine young adults, and we do so in alignment with the Guru Shishya Parampara, instilling the right virtues, morals, and ethics in our students to prepare them for life beyond the school premises.

Our dedicated boarding houses are staffed by compassionate caregivers who wholeheartedly commit to maintaining the well-being, health, and happiness of every student under their care. We work in close partnership with parents, guided by shared values that prioritize the overall welfare of our students. Each house is led by a Housemaster, supported by Assistant Masters, Dames, and Tutors. Every student has regular one-to-one meetings with their Tutor, who offers guidance on all aspects of their personal and academic development.

Our team’s major role is to develop a close relationship between the boarders, their parents and the academic team so that every child feels that they are in ‘A HOME AWAY FROM HOME’ and a place where bonds are made for life.

There are separate boarding houses for boys and girls. They reside in four boarding houses: Barbet, Malkoha, Minivet and Sunbird. The living facilities are planned to provide a family-like atmosphere to our boarders where they feel safe and secure.

When students arrive at Vandya International School, it can take some time to adjust, let go of the comfort zone of their homes and settle into their new surroundings. We understand the need for extra care and concern during this crucial transition period, which is why we place our young learners in holding house under the personal care of a Housemaster, Assistant master, Dames, and a team of Tutors. This ensures that they receive the attention and support they require as they acclimatize to their new home away from home.

CLUBS & SOCIETIES

“Unlocking Your Child’s Potential through Club Participation at Vandya
At Vandya, we understand that childhood is a time for exploration, growth, and self-discovery. That’s why we offer a wide range of clubs and societies that allow your child to engage in activities they are passionate about and connect with like-minded peers. Our clubs not only foster social interactions but also empower students with autonomy, motivation, and the chance to expand their knowledge.

Selecting the right club is crucial, and we believe it should stem from a genuine interest or hobby. At Vandya, we are proud to provide a comprehensive list of clubs and societies, ensuring that all our students have a diverse array of options to choose from.

To encourage greater participation in co-curricular activities, we have established in-house Co-Curricular Activity (CCA) . Both the Primary School, Middle and Senior School have their respective CCA clubs.

Primary School students are encouraged to join two CCA clubs in a year, dedicating six months to each. Middle and Senior School students can join a single CCA club of their choice during the academic year.

We allocate a special fifty-minute session for Co-curricular activities twice a week, where students can focus on honing their skills in their chosen Co-Curricular Activities. For some, the Co-Curricular Activities serve as a platform to pursue hobbies, while for senior students it is an opportunity to acquire skills that can be channelled into future career options.

At Vandya, we believe in nurturing well-rounded individuals who excel not only academically but also in the pursuit of their passions and interests. Our clubs and Co-Curricular Activities are designed to do jusst that. Join us in shaping your child’s journey of self-discovery and personal growth through club participation at Vandya School.”
