It gives me immense pleasure to inform you that Jamnabai Narsee International School has completed its first year of offering the PYP and MYP curricula very successfully.

Jamnabai Narsee International School offers PYP, MYP, IGCSE& IBDP with an integrated curriculum and a culmination of best global practices.

Narsee Monjee Educational Trust's Jamnabai Narsee School completed 45 glorious years of service to the community on 17th January, 2016. The 45th year celebrated the inauguration and commencement of Jamnabai Narsee School, GIFT City, Gandhinagar, Gujarat – which, in its first year, has been awarded the Gold Certification for Green Building. This award endorses an important statement of the school mission – "Awareness of the environment and of the responsibility to conserve it."

The new air-conditioned indoor sports hallwith a badminton court, mini basketball court and a 30 feet professional rock climbing wall, along with the adjoining outdoor turf area has added to the already existing sports infrastructure. This has resulted in a professional outdoor multisport facility being available for students' use. We are fortunate to benefit from the adjoining Jamnabai Narsee Playground and Pushpa Narsee Park which are used exclusively by the students during school hours.

Education brings about opportunity and, in turn, inspiration. The school believes that "every student can learn, just not on the same day, or the same way "- George Evans. Education should arouse enthusiasm in children so that they can explore this beautiful world at their own pace. We are proud and honoured to offer this philosophy of intelligent and structured teaching at Jamnabai Narsee International School and our students will have full access to sophisticated and innovative systems for learning.

It is encouraging to note that our graduating batch of IBDP and ISC students have achieved impressive results and many have been placed in Ivy League Institutions in the US and other prestigious Universities in the US, Canada, UK and India among other countries.

The sincere effort of our Head of School (JNIS) and Principal (JNS) and their respective teams, non-teaching and support staff is commended and appreciated. The remarkable team work has helped in realising the mission of the school.

We are also grateful to the Parent Teacher Association (PTA) and Jamnabai Narsee Alumni Association (JNAA) for organising various events throughout the year and supporting all school endeavours.
