Annual Report 2021-2022

The year 2021-2022 has been a remarkable year for St. Thomas public School Muvattupuzha. A great accomplishment shouldn’t be the end of road, just the starting point for the next leap forward. We delight the beauty of the butterfly but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty. It is the changes that we all through our lives that constantly improves us. Aristotle once said “Educating the mind without educating the heart is not education at all”.

The school believes in the motto “Total Growth through Education” which promises wholesome education of children through holistic approach and promotes academic excellence, life skill education and practising good values in their day to day life. We bow in humility in expressing our profound gratitude to all who supported us in attaining glorious heights in these years.
