The World of Amazing Learning at Manthan! Discover the Campus and Premier Facilities.

21,000 Books in Libraries

Libraries at Manthan are designed to encourage and inspire young children to read from an early age. With over 21,000 book titles covering fiction, reference books, periodicals, and magazines, our libraries are well-stocked and well-maintained.

There are four libraries in total, one for each learning segment – Pre-Primary, Primary, Middle and High School – and librarians work closely with the school leadership to ensure that the libraries are updated with the latest and most relevant reading material.

Reading Activities

Reading is a regular activity in the Pre-Primary and Primary stages, with teachers reading books to children daily and lending simple self-reading books for them to take home each week.

Our proprietary structured reading programme, Tent of Tales, is available to all students and rewards are given for the number of books read.

CD-ROMs are also available, integrated into the teaching curriculum and used by teachers to explain concepts in an audio-visual environment.

Mini Libraries

Each classroom has its own mini library, with books relevant to the subjects being taught available for teachers and students to borrow.

Our science labs allow students to gain hands-on experience with what they learn in the classroom. For every unit, students get an opportunity to conduct practical experiments in the lab in all three sciences
– Physics, Chemistry and Biology.

Physics Lab

The Physics lab allows for a complete practical experience for students across all grades. From experiments in kinematics to electricity, the Physics lab is fully equipped for practical learning.

Biology Lab

The Biology lab allows students to examine and investigate the wonders of life. With microscopes and specimens (both plant and animal), students can explore, experiment and discover the wonders of nature beyond the classroom.

Chemistry Lab

From titrations to deducing boiling points, our Chemistry lab is the perfect place for every experiment. We have a range of chemicals used for various experiments and practical work.

Composite Science Lab

Apart from the three subject labs, we also have a Composite Science Lab where younger students are encouraged to observe and conduct science experiments related to their current classroom topics under the guidance of their teachers.

Manthan’s four ICT Labs allow students to access individual computers during their computer classes. All the necessary software is available, as well as a projector, smart board, and a computer system.

A specialist teacher runs the computer lab, guiding pupils in their technological pursuits, as technology plays an integral role in all subjects.

Music is an important part of education, and our two Music Rooms allow students to play and enjoy all forms of music.

The rooms have various instruments, including a drum kit, keyboards, tabla, dholak, daphli, and guitars (acoustic and electric).

Dance classes are also part of the Manthan curriculum, with two dance rooms fitted with mirrors and wooden floors available to provide a complete dance studio-like experience.

It is mandatory to participate in dance classes through the primary school years. Once students reach Middle and High School, they can choose to continue their dance training by becoming members of the Manthan Dance Club.

The Story Hut, located by the side of the playground, is a roofed open space used for role-play and storytelling.

The Tree House is a popular place to hang out for one and all. It is built on and around one of the oldest trees on the campus and provides shade and comfort on sunny days. It is a great addition to the other play areas in the school.

Manthan has a spacious cafeteria where students and staff have breakfast and lunch on all working days. We also include healthy snacks in the menu for the day. The kitchen staff diligently plans balanced meals that are carefully prepared on the school premises. While nutrition is the key factor in the meal plan, different dishes are prepared regularly to cater to all palates.

Special meals are also planned for festivals and special occasions.

Manthan is one of the few schools with interactive boards with projectors and PCs in each classroom. This enables teachers to bring multimedia resources into the classroom and also enables students to become proficient in PowerPoint and other multimedia presentations.

We use a Gigabit LAN (Systimax certified) through which teachers and students can instantaneously access multimedia content stored on school servers and the internet. It provides easy access to educational material for everyone.

Manthan has advanced content management and messaging software that enables teachers to upload lessons and assessments. Parents are given easy access to this portal to stay updated with their children’s education. Furthermore, the teaching coordinators and teachers can be freely contacted by students and parents via email for any feedback or queries.

Manthan has a dedicated student counsellor who works with middle and high school students to improve their emotional and mental well-being. We also incorporate the principles of Social Emotional Learning into our education framework, allowing all learners to identify and navigate emotions, practice mindful engagement, and exhibit pro-social behaviour to flourish towards a peaceful and sustainable plan.

Manthan conducts surveys to understand students’ wellness levels and implements changes wherever necessary. In one of the wellness surveys, the school realised that students’ concerns are dynamic with different intensity levels. A ‘Teacher Mentors’ team, chosen by high school students, was formed for basic guidance and counselling. The school counsellor conducted sessions on basic counselling skills and sensitised teachers to student wellness issues.

A monthly check is kept on all students to see if distress is increasing or decreasing in both middle and high school. Teacher Mentors counsel students if their distress level is low. For a high-intensity issue, the school counsellor takes over.

Dr Meghna Singhal, a clinical psychologist and parent educator, popularly known as “The Therapist Mommy,” conducted a webinar for high and middle school parents.

Manthan also has highly qualified Special Needs teachers who work with special needs students individually and in groups to promote full academic functioning. They implement Individual Educational Plans (IEP) to create a safe and productive classroom environment. The educators facilitate inclusive learning and counsel children and parents on different learning aspects. They also train teachers to educate them on different disabilities in special needs children and how to support them.
