A school as a BEACON for the community
This pillar offers a menu of possibilities to help founders and leaders re-imagine their schools as lighthouses in communities. Here we offer some simple initiatives through which a school can engage with its community and therefore blur the boundary between school and life. These initiatives inspire children, the school as well as community and by doing so re-position the school as ‘A SCHOOL FOR THE WORLD’.
We hope and wish that these multiple ways will help the light in your lighthouse shine brighter and illumine many lives!

Community Engagement
Community Engagement
The Community Engagement workshop is a simple and powerful way to build a circle of giving and gratitude. Very often, a team is so committed to the tasks within the school walls that we sometimes don't get the time to reflect on all our blessings. This workshop will offer a simple strategy to ensure that we grow our spirit of abundance within our team and with the larger community.
