The aim of education is not to prepare a man to succeed in life and society, but to increase his perfectibility to the utmost.

The Mother

The objectives therefore are:

  1. To evolve and realise a system of Integral Education and to make it a dynamic ideal for society.
  2. To organise an environment and an atmosphere affording inspiration and facilities for the exercise and development of the essential aspects of personality: the physical, the vital, the mental, the psychic and the spiritual;
  3. and
  4. To induce and inculcate a sense of beauty and cleanliness in children and society as a whole.



But the acquiring of various kinds of information is only one and not the chief of the means and necessities of education: its central aim is the building of the powers of the human mind and spirit, it is the formation or, as I would prefer to view it, the evoking of knowledge and will and of the power to use knowledge, character, culture, - that at least if no more.

Sri Aurobindo

The School believes that Value Education, Co-curricular activities and Physical Education are no less important than academic pursuits. Participation in co-curricular activity classes and clubs, where applicable, and Value Education and Physical Education is mandatory.



..., we must keep abreast with the march of truth and knowledge, fit ourselves for existence under actual circumstances, and our education must be therefore up to date in form and substance and modern in life and spirit.

Sri Aurobindo

The School believes that Technology is not an end in itself but a means and hence computer-aided rather than computer education is extensively used to arouse interest and build initiative.

Arun Nursery School itself is located within the premises of Lakshmi's House, a temple that houses Sri Aurobindo's relics - a material assurance of Their living Presence and Guidance. When the teachers and students walk through the portals of "Mother's own House in Calcutta", they breathe this very presence and share with their souls the vibration of every atom in this Home of Grace - a vibration of truth, consciousness and love - a vibration that awakens and intensifies aspiration into a one-pointed flame seeking the Divine and a life divine.
