A brief history of Gujarati
The language of Gujarati also known as Gojarati or Gujerati is the official language of the State of Gujarat. The language is named after the Gurjar/Gujar community people who are said to have settled in the region sometime in the middle of the 5th century C.E.
It also comes under one of the 22 official languages recognized by the Government of India. Most of the words in Gujarati are taken from Sanskrit with slight modifications where the top line of the letters are omitted.
Gujarati was the mother tongue of Mohandas K. Gandhi, the “father of India", and Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, the “Iron man of India".

Parents, please ensure that children are neatly dressed in clean clothing every day. It is important that the children are active, so please ensure that your child is comfortable.

Ensure that the child wears comfortable shoes, as they are quite active during the day and involved in many gross motor development activities.

We take the health and well-being of all your children very seriously. Whilst we understand the difficulties of getting to the school at short notice, we will only contact you if we find it necessary and would appreciate your co-operation if your child is ill.

With regards to medication, NO medication may be given to the child. In exceptional cases medications may be given to the teacher, with correct dosage. This medication will then be administered as prescribed.
