Our Founder :
Ms. Manju

With a deep belief in Montessori philosophy, she envisioned a nurturing environment where children could thrive at their own pace, unconstrained by traditional education. Ms. Manju’s steadfast commitment to the Montessori method, along with her conviction in educators’ transformative power, continues to guide our institution. Moreover, drawing on over 20 years of experience, her expertise has been key to integrating the Montessori approach with ICSE, IGCSE*, and IBDP curriculums. This unique blend ensures Sharanalaya remains faithful to its Montessori roots while preparing students for the global challenges ahead.
