Can Sikh Dharma create educational impact?
Wahe Guru Ji ka Khalsa, Wahe Guru Ji ki Fateh!
We opened the Miri Piri School in Brazil in February 2015, and our refreshing premise is to offer academic excellence during the formative years for children of all walks of life. We are serving the material, spiritual and social needs of families and kids by applying the universal values shared by Guru Nanak Dev Ji helping them to build a strong character to face the challenges of life with excellence.
With enormous blessings and community support, Miri Piri School Brazil has emerged as a hope to restore forgotten values along with applying best education practices for future generations in South America. The fundamental principle underpinning our academic curriculum is a set of values such as reverence, purity, and discipline that anchors all academic areas of our curriculum - arts, literature, social and natural studies, games and math, cooking, music, yoga, meditation and gatka. This provides an opportunity for children and families to work on persistent parenting and educational problems under a substantial educational team support and technology.
By Guru's grace, out of nothing we brought to full function a school for children from ages 2 to 6 years. It took us more than five years to test all of the methodology and combination of contents. It also required the steady vision and determination of the Sangat in Brazil to do that. We have not yet completed one year of business and due to our impact, two other cities in Brazil now have investors ready to open two other Miri Piri Schools in 2017. Imagine!
The parents now want us to guarantee that their children can grow with the school. Therefore, we need to build one last classroom to accommodate children from 7 to 9 years of age. With this addition, our goal to have a complete school for ages 2-9 in Belo Horizonte, Brazil will be fulfilled.
Our purpose is to create an educational system based on academic excellence and Dharmic values because we believe the core principles of Sikhism can serve as a substratum to a new culture in the contemporary world. A culture that fosters honor and reverence for life in all its nuances; a culture that can provide better human beings for the world regardless their walk of life.
We need your help to build the new classroom. Please join us in continuing to build upon this already strong foundation.
