DPS MANAGEMENT is Excellent !!!

DPS school, its management and the staff never stops to amaze me !

The DPS bus which comes to Kalyani Nagar to pick and drop my child would stop at a very filthy place. At the garbage dump, right after the bridge ended . It was not just filthy but was a nuisance to be standing amongst ragpickers, truck drivers and scrap collection shop. My kid started only this year, so I was trying to bear untill the rains started this june 2009. It became a nightmare to stand in the rains, with cars splashing water, flies tickling and men staring at buffons like us waiting !
That’s when I decided, no more bearing this unwanted trauma everyday in the scorching sun or pouring rains.
I spoke to a few parents if they wanted to get the bus stand shifted to somewhere decent place. Everyone obviously nodded. SO I went to the school and spoke to the office lady, who asked me to get a letter from all the parents who wanted the same. Then my hubby darling spoke to the transport head too. He said if there was a good number of students from my society, they will defintely consider the change.
SO I again made a letter describing the situation, took names of all the kids who would come to the bus stop and gave it to the principal. I also showed the management pictures of the area in the rains with the garbage.
The principal without a single word approved the change of the stop from the shabby place to my society Lunkad Sky Lounge. Now that’s what I call quick decision and appreciate the DPS school even more.

What a SCHOOL you have madamjee ! Hats off !

Moral of the story …. When you want to get something, all you have to do is ASK ! 🙂

DPS PUNE SCHOOL, A Benchmark !!!!!!

A critic’s critic is what I can be best described as 🙂

I have very high set of standards when it comes to kids, education, hygiene and anything to do with the tiny tots. 🙂

Since my younger son was happily going to a kindergarten school “Kider Brook” at Kalyani Nagar, I was a carefree mom with no tension of homework, timing was cool 9:30 am to 12:30 pm. Next to my home a lane far to be precise :).

So when he completed his nursery and was time for Jr Kg, I was not gonna repeat the mistake of hanging on to a kindergarten , which I did for my elder son. Read my blog on St Mary’s for more.

So come november 2008 and I started checking the DPS website for the form to be downloaded for admissions.
I was glad to find it in the second week of the month. Downloaded the form and took the print-outs. It was a pleasure to the eyes and mind to see very clear, no nonsense form with only required information that was asked for to be filled in.
There were only two things that were needed to be arranged for the registration time read more…

Yippy my son got through ST MARY’S SCHOOL Pune, India !

Feb 24, 2008

 

I am a very proud and free mom today..Why? ‘Cause finally my elder son got through the St Mary’s School in Upper KG ! I should have hunted for schools and admission when he was to go to LKG.

On the day of his written test (imagine that for a 4.5 yr old) and an oral test, I was quite sure he will do well as he is a brilliant learner!

U know, he likes to learn about everything and anything! Such intelligent questions?

One question in the interview was what objects do u use in a rainy day?

He told me all that he cud think of including umbrella, raincoat, gumboots….and then he added ..” teacher u can use newspaper also if you don’t have anything else   !”

I knew I don’t have to worry.

So on the  parents’ interview day , my hubby and I waited for one hour for our turn with butterflies in my tummy!…

  Mrs. Mathew, the director of St Mary’s was smiling and looking through her spectacles. She asked me, “So you are Shourya’s Parents?”  And we replied “Yes”. Not forgetting any of our etiquettes, we pulled the chair to sit down.
Mrs. Mathew who was beaming said with a lovely smile ….” Oh your son has done very well, he is brilliant child! 

Then she asked where my younger son goes. I told her as of now a playschool called Kidder Brook, but will be here after one year to join his brother in St Mary’s.

Hoping to see any change in expression or an answer to counter my far fetched thoughts, I looked into her eyes. read more…
