About
Chettinad Hari Shree Vidyalayam is managed by the Chettinad Group under the auspices of the Gandhinagar Education Society. A request by the members of the society to help educate the children from the Gandhinagar and Raja Annamalaipuram led Padmabhushan Dr. Rajah Sir M.A. Muthiah Chettiar to establish schools for children of all age groups. From 1956 until now, several schools have been established by the Chettinad family and many of them are functioning as charitable institutions.
Hari Shree was founded in 2004 with a vision to create a safe, emotionally secure, joyful environment, while being rooted to our culture. The philosophy of the school is inspired by Swami Dayananda Saraswati.
We aim to enable children to become compassionate and responsible global citizens, to think globally and act locally, contributing towards a sustainable future. Our focus is to shift from ‘I’ to ‘we’, ‘me’ to ‘us’ and ‘my’ to ‘our’.
The school is affiliated to the Council for Indian Schools Certificate Examinations (ICSE / ISC board)
