Anandi
आनंदी / aa-nan-dee / adjective

Anandi means joy and contentment in Sanskrit and Hindi. We believe true joy is found in the pursuit of excellence, exploring deeply, and discovering what we are capable of.

As educators, we see it as our greatest responsibility to guide every child on this path early in life.

That is why we are The Anandi School.
