Admissions

The teaching – learning approach at SHEMROCK Heritage, a playschool, since 1989, focusses on the requirements, interests, abilities and different learning styles of the children. Our SHEMROCKites are at the center of our educational process & system. We provide a carefully planned & structured environment to foster the all-round development of our children. The efficient and able facilitators at our nursery school work diligently & with a motherly approach to help our pre-school children become self-confident, honest, social and dependable.

To make the transition from home to school, easier, we have a special ‘Welcome Room’ for our children. Children are allowed to get comfortable in this Welcome Room till they become familiar with the surroundings and the teachers.
