MOTTO

“Sa Vidhya Ya Vimuktaye" ‑ "that which liberates is knowledge"

What We Stand For

                                                H         -           Honesty ‑ is the best principle ‑ 'Sathyameva Jayathe'
                                                                                     is the motto in our life.

ORIGIN AND GROWTH

His  Holiness Jagadguru Sankaracharya  of  Kanchi  Kamakoti  Mutt gave  a clarion call to start Hindu Convents to instil our cultural and traditional values among our students along with the  qualitative  education. Responding  to  this call, Vishva Hindu Vidya Kendra started a Hindu Convent on an experimental basis at West Mambalam in  the  year 1975. Started with Primary classes, it rose  to become a Higher Secondary by 1983. In the same year (1975), the Kendra  also took over the management of National Higher Secondary School, now adopted by a silent  philanthropist, Sri  Jaigopal Garodia along with the school at West Mambalam. Since  then, both the schools are named after him  as Jaigopal Garodia National Higher Secondary School, Tambaram. Jaigopal Garodia Hindu Vidyalaya Matriculation Higher Secondary School, West Mambalam. By 1979 , the experiment at the above schools attracted  other areas to  start schools. Hence Kendra started schools at  Adambakkam,  Kanyakumari Dt.,   V.O.C. Dt., Nilgiri Dt., and  at  Ramanathapuram Dt. The timely offer of land from Royapuram   co-operative house building society to start the Adambakkam school while Sri S. J. POTHI, who retired  from U.N.O. donated  his  land (fourteen  grounds) for the further development of Adambakkam school. Sri. Jaigopal and Sri. G. K. Shetty came forward to  put  up  pucca  building  at  West Mambalam  and   Adambakkam respectively.

At the same time THIRUVAVADUTHURAI ADHEENAM gave on a long lease 2 acres of  land  at  Krishnan Koil, Nagercoil,  K.K. District  to  develop  Hindu Vidyalaya. Today with the untiring help of many, particularly by Sri.T.K.Sastri a well equipped building is built spaciously at  Krishnan Koil and  upgraded as Higher Secondary. Hindu Vidyalaya at Thucklay and Marthandam were also upgraded as Higher Secondary at the same time.

The fragrance and popularity of the schools at Chennai & Kanyakumari District (Nagercoil, Aralvaimozhi, Thuckalay, Marthadam, Radhakrishna Puram, Ganapathi Puram, Nagercoil Town Karungal and  at  Bootha  Pandi) and another school at  Srivaikundam  and  Coonoor  at the same time blossomed. All these schools have made their mark almost three decades in the field of education. A boys hostel for the backward children started at Ramathapuram.

ABOUT OURSELVES  

VISHVA HINDU VIDYA KENDRA, a non‑profit service society registered under Societies Act in the year 1978, is exclusively devoted to the cause of education sponsoring and managing the schools spread all over Tamilnadu.

 The tiny seed sown in June 1975 in West Mambalam, Chennai has sprouted today into a very big banyan tree with 17 schools spread all over Tamilnadu, situated in Nagercoil, Thaucklay,Marthandam, Radhakrishnapuram, Karungal and Aralvoimozhi in Kanyakumari District, Srivaikundam in Tuticorin District, at Coonoor in Nilagiri District, Tambaram, Adambakkam and West Mambalam.

 We are a large family with a strength of over 15,000 students, 600 teachers and over 100 non‑teaching staff, and has a remarkable achievement in a span of 32 years.  

National Higher Secondary School at Tambaram started in 1940 by Sri. K.N. Venkatachari as part of the National Movement in the field of education was handed over to Vishva Hindu ParishadPin 1974.  

Shri T.S. Rajam, an illustrious industrialist of the esteemed TVS Group, who was the then working President of Vishva Hindu Parishad took charge of the School from Sri. K.N. Venkatachari. 

The Management of the School was duly transferred to Vishva Hindu Vidya Kendra after its formation.

 The school has now risen to an eminent position, thanks to the tireless efforts of a dedicated team under the leadership of Sri. K. Narayan Rao. 

Similarly the schools at West Mambalam and at Adambakkam in Chennai have grown to their present stature only because of the single minded devotion of Dr.Smt. Girija Seshadri, the Dynamic and a team of dedicated Staff Members. 

The growth of the 7 schools in Kanyakumari District to their present stature is exclusively because of the ceaseless efforts of Sri.S.Venkatachalam Iyer, an octogenarian.  

“Sa Vidhya Ya Vimuktaye" ‑ "that which liberates is knowledge" is the motto of Vishva Hindu Vidya Kendra. 

The Kendra is providing qualitative education at a cost affordable to the lower and middle income groups. 

The thrust of the Kendra is not mere academic excellence but equally in achieving all round development of the personality of the students through various activities curricular, co‑curricular and extra curricular. 

What we have achieved though appreciable is not sufficient. We have a long way to go for achieving the ideals. 

We pray to the Almighty to bless us to continue our journey with redoubled effort.
