Greetings from Kingston High.

It gives me great pleasure to be working as Managing Director at Kingston High. It has taken seven years for a little dream of starting a school, to finally materialize and take shape. It is truly God’s hand that was upon this vision. When I look back in years, I see we had no funds, no building or man power. It was with determination and complete faith in the Lord, that we started our first school “Toddlers Zone’ a Pre-School.

Today Kingston High stands as a testimony for what the Lord has done. It was after much deliberation that the name Kingston was chosen for the school. It means’ The King’s Settlement.’ Rightfully so, this would be the settlement of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ and would continue to remain a blessing for generations to come. My dream is to see our children grow in wisdom and stature and in favour with God and all the people. May Lord Jesus Christ continue to bless the children and our staff as we grow in Kingston High.

Warm Wishes to Everyone

I BELIEVE THIS VERSE FROM THE BIBLE EXPLAINS IT ALL.
‘For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good work, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them. Ephesians 2:10 ‘

As a child, I grew up in a school atmosphere of which my mother was the Founder and Principal. It was a Pre School which was started after I was born and which over the years grew to be a High School. Though I was a keen observer of how things functioned, I never imagined that someday I would get into the same profession as my mother.

I had no idea what God’s Plan for me was but as it is said ‘Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand.’ Proverbs 19:21

Being born into a family of educationists and married into a family that had always nurtured a dream to start a School, God guided me and my family, to start a Preschool in 2009, called ‘Toddlers’ Zone’. Now we know how God plans things. Soon our passion and hard work was appreciated by parents associated with the school and we received a lot of love, support and encouragement from them. This meant that we were here to stay.

God had a bigger plan for us. With His special favour on us we started our very own K12 School, and we called it Kingston High.

I share a very special bond with all our students. Little kids have a charisma which draws me towards them. I treasure each and every moment I get to spend with the children. Children are precious and I am grateful to God for choosing me to be a part of His great plan.

I Praise and Thank God for Kingston High.

Welcome to Kingston High!

21st century education is evolving. In the past, education focused mainly on the goal, today focus is also on the process; Education was teacher centric, today it is student centric. This paradigm shift brought about by Globalization and rapid advances in Information and Technology, has seen the emergence of new pedagogies that understand the uniqueness of a child and aim at developing abilities that are inherent in him.

At Kingston High we understand the needs of the changing times and the importance of gearing our students to meet the demands of a global society. We believe that every child is an individual entity and that no two individuals are alike. It is our endeavour, to identify the abilities of a child and guide him through his strengths to reach his full potential. It is our endeavour to ignite the minds of children and arouse in them the love for learning and the desire to acquire new knowledge and be able to use it in real life situations successfully.

Through a well planned integrated curriculum and supporting co-curricular activities planned by a forward thinking, proactive Management and implemented by motivated and dedicated teachers we aim to achieve academic excellence in students, and instill in them positive attitude, a sound value system, social awareness and a sense of self worth.

Let us join hands and work towards a common goal – ‘Empowering Our Children’. Looking forward to working with you.

Regards

Mary Eltham

Classrooms

The centre of learning, with a teacher pupil ratio of 1:30, classrooms spread across three floors are large and spacious and have all necessary requirements that facilitate a favourable learning environment.

Library

The habit of reading must begin at home and continued in school. Our school library has innumerable books to cater to the needs of students of various age groups. Students are encouraged to read books in school and also take books home. Books range from storybooks, general knowledge, poetry, reference, informative and educational magazines and many more. The Library is regularly upgraded.

Laboratories

Physics, Chemistry & Biology
Learning by doing makes understanding a concept interesting and most importantly gets imprinted in one’s mind easily. Separate Physics, Chemistry & Biology laboratories are equipped with apparatus required to make learning of the subjects meaningful. Practical work is compulsory. Students carry out experiments under the guidance of able teachers, enabling them to observe, collect data and draw conclusions.

Computer Lab
Computer Studies begin from Grade 1 onwards. Our computer laboratory is equipped with the latest computers. The computer ratio is 1:2, providing all students the opportunity of e-learning.

Audio-Visual Room

To support learning in various subjects, students are taken to the AV Room for presentations and viewing of related videos. For recreation, children’s videos and educational programmes are viewed by our students.

Infirmary

A two bed clean airy room, with first aid equipment is always available.

Minimum Homework

With a student spending most of his waking hours in school and since the syllabus calls for hands on work in the class, minimum homework is given. There is a Homework Time Table. Students in the Lower Primary School do not take more than three subject books home everyday. Homework if given, is given on some days, on other days students’ books are sent for parent’s scrutiny. In Kindergarten very little work is sent home.

Light Bags

Since minimum homework is given, students keep most of the books in school and take home books required for study only, thus carrying light bags.

Equal Opportunity

The school conducts different programmes and every child is given the opportunity to participate in them. In given time students become enthusiastic participants in all activities.

Safety

Students’ safety is a priority in school. At any given time, there is active supervision in school and on field. CCTV cameras are installed. Sending of students home is carefully monitored. A lady attendant accompanies students in the School buses. No person without permission or without a proper ID is allowed into school.

Teacher- Student Relationship

There is mutual respect for each other. The teacher understands the abilities of every child and recognizes every student’s effort in the work he/she does, in academics as well as extra-curricular activities. There is no undue pressure on students to secure high marks, yet they are encouraged to work to the best of their abilities and are encouraged to maximize their potential. With this support students begin to trust their teachers. Trust begets confidence and confident learners are the ultimate goal of education at Kingston High.

Collaboration of Home and School

The Management, staff and parents work in unison for the betterment of students. Information is communicated effectively to parents through circulars, the UOLO App and Rubix App. The Rubix App gives parents information of their child’s attendance, homework, progress report and upcoming events.

Student Counselling & Life Skill Classes

A student’s emotional & mental well being is just as important as his physical well being. At Kingston High we understand that every child is unique and has different abilities that are inherent in him and every child’s requirement is different. The school has a student counselor from Drishti, who helps both the student and teacher in reaching these goals. Life Skill classes are conducted for all students once a month, and two training sessions for the teachers.

Learnometer Tests & Olympiads

The Learnometer Tests by XSEED are conducted for students of Grades 1 & 2 to assess their understanding of what they have studied in class and how they are able to apply this new knowledge to existing and new situations.

The Science Olympiad Foundation in partnership with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs and British Council conducts these exams.
