VIVEK EDUCATION SOCIETY
“A dream doesn’t become reality through magic; it takes sweat, determination
and hard work.” Colin Powell
Vivek Education Society (VES) was formed in 1961. The founding members of
VES conceived a noble idea of establishing a school for imparting quality
education. The passion driven members surmounted all odds, paucity of funds
being one of them and laid the foundation of Vivek Vidyalya School in 1962. The
proverb ‘Mighty oaks from little acorns grow’ holds true for VES. The evolution
of the school from a Secondary School to a full-fledged College is testimony to
it. Today Vivek Vidyalaya High School and College stands tall as an educational
institutional par excellence. The institution continues to be driven by the original
spirit instilled and inspired by the pioneers who shaped it during its formative
period.
Over the years, our institution has crossed many mile stones and secured many
honours. British Council’s International School Award is one of them. The motto
of the institution is ‘Education is supreme among all the riches and virtues of
life.’ We cater to the educational needs of children from all strata of society. All
our members, staff and students are proud to be associated with our institution.
Vivians, as the students proudly call themselves, have been consistently bringing
laurels to this institution.
We are solely motivated by the thoughts of Swami Vivekananda, one of the
greatest spiritual leaders of India after whom our institution is named. He rightly
said, “Character is the foundation of self-development. It is the patient building
of character, the intense struggle to realize the truth which alone will tell in the
future of humanity.” VES strives to promote noble thoughts and actions in
students and empower them to successfully live in and work for culturally diverse
global society.
