We are delighted to be ranked Thane’s #1 preschool.
Our well-trained and experienced teachers are the
“heart of our preschool. They ensure that our children
receive high-quality holistic early childhood education.
Therefore, it’s gratifying that we have been awarded the
highest score under the teacher competence parameter.
I am also happy that our investment in continuously up-
grading our curriculum which blends academic learning
with emotional and social development has paid off with
Sunflower being awarded the highest score under cur-
riculum and pedagogy. Our good performance on all other
parameters is proof that we are providing a well-rounded
education experience and are constantly innovating with
new initiatives such as our recently launched Nature
and Sustainability Program, to stay ahead of the rest”
