NEW INITIATIVES

The school executes long term plans to enhance the school infrastructure in diverse areas, based on an annual cycle around the Founder's Day. Such renovations, with full sensitivity towards heritage and conservation, are based upon the advice of various professionals, and conservation architects from among our own Old Boys.

  4. Eikyam: This project is situated at the heart of the school in front of school building and served as an exhibition center during the visit of PM Modi. This project has been completed before the Founders’ day 2023. "Eikyam" is a Sanskrit word that means "unity" or "oneness." Beautifully constructed and placed, Eikyam conveys the idea of harmony, togetherness, or the coming together of the Scindian community to form a cohesive whole.
  5. New Olympic size Swimming Pool: Construction of the new Swimming pool has been completed. Boys have commenced their swimming from 15th Jul 2024. The pool has been designed with an edge that gives the illusion that the water extends to the horizon, overlooking a scenic view. However, certain finishing work has been going on, which will be completed by the end of the month of September 2024.
  6. Water Harvesting: The Infra Committee has recently completed the installation of two new water tanks, each with a capacity of 250,000 liters, and a pump room along the wall of the new swimming pool. The setup includes:
    • Tank 1: Designed to receive raw water from both bore wells and local reservoirs (taals).
    • Tank 2: Serves as the domestic tank, where water undergoes filtration and dosing processes.
    Water from Tank 1 is treated through filtration and dosing before being transferred to Tank 2. From Tank 2, the treated water is supplied to all facilities via the existing tank at Eikyam. This project has successfully integrated the storage and treatment of 2 million liters of water from the new swimming pool. The water is processed through the new pumps and filters and then directed to the balancing tank for final storage and use.
