Among the countless schools and educators on the globe, there stands apart a man and the schools founded by him for the unique approach followed in providing a wholesome and joyous experience for anyone - a child, teacher, parent, domestic staff ....who enters these schools.
It is hard to believe that such a human exist who is deeply passionate and spends every minute of his life for his school and children - perpetually seeking new ways to improve teaching methods, researching on the innovative modes to enhance the learning experiences, shuttling between the Sherwood and Heritage Valley campus only to ensure that every child who walks out of these campuses are virtuous, able bodied, confident and ready to explore the world without fear.Here, children are treasured for their uniqueness and their educational journey is made joyful, affirming their growth in physical, emotional, spiritual, social and intellectual aspects through a well defined curriculum and a right mix of co curricular activities.
Mr Yogendra Kumar Gurwara , an embodiment of compassion , zest and strong will is a shining example of leading a productive life. As the 75th birthday rang in on 15th September, it only gave him more purpose and motive to continue his mission for both the schools.
Sir, you have touched many lives, strongly influenced anyone who has met you once in their lifetime, your guidance has brought out the best in every soul...we wish you a long life full of gratitude, goodness and happiness.
Dear Sir, Guide, Mentor, Friend and Shikshak.
On 21st June, 1984 History was made ! Sherwood was made! With the qualities and plus sides from schools all around the country you had worked in.
“I found my calling in teaching” – YKG
Every day you come up with something new for your children to make this education joyful. Frankly, you were the first teacher to laugh and agree to the fact that children’s first priority is games!
You never pressured academics onto children’s shoulders. And made Sherwood so much fun with Art, Music and the Library. In 75 years of your life you never failed in making a child’s education fun!
By incorporating all sorts of fun activities. Sherwood is a temple of learning!’ complete with the best teachers & best environment! The Excursions made the exams seem like a little hurdle in the way of limitless fun. The exam stress was almost ‘Doofed’ into the air because of thoughts of Manali and the Himalayas running wild in our minds.
“Blissful Childhood and not a mad race”
All the children of Sherwood could enjoy their childhood because they never had to stress on H.W or tests. It was a butter – smooth experience. Science could never have been more fun than that at Sherwood with Science labs.
“Sherwoodians forming India” Annual Day! The time of the year where there is just music, fun and happiness in the air.
The Sherwoodians were always considered the future of the country and were shown through the magnificent event - The India formation.
For making thousands of children’s childhood golden, THANK YOU DEAR SHIKSHAK.
