The begining of S M Residential Central School - Alice Thomas

A Noble vision of Alice Thomas

For the past 22 years, more than 900 needy children who are placed in Divine Children’s Home where they are given food, clothing, accommodation and education.

Typically, children above the age of six are placed in DCH. Before the age of six, children should learn letters and words. However, there are a variety of reasons why these children are not so fortunate to attend preschool or nursery. As a result, a large number of children are illiterate in both reading and writing.

“My Perspective on Education”

Now the first standard begins with verse, whether it is in Malayalam medium or in English medium. How can the children learn the sentences if they don’t know the letters and words?

Teaching these children letters and their corresponding class books at the same time has been quite difficult for me.

Similar to this, a student of Malayalam medium up to the 10th grade will be taught in English language in Plus One and Plus Two. It will be quite challenging for them to be successful in the exams or score high marks if they didn’t receive enough support.

A child who follows the CBSE curriculum from LKG to class 8th can do well academically in the 9th and 10th grades and also perform well in competitive exams.

With these things in mind, we have started a school for underprivileged children with CBSE curriculum, in 100% free of cost – S M Residential Central School.
