Worthy Chairman Sh. Rameshwar Mengi, Director Sh. Rakshan Mengi, Vice Principal Dr. Harvinder kour and Administrator Sh. Surinder Singh appreciated and motivated students to participate in such events and opportunities provided by the school . A student enthusiastically shared, “I had no idea such a beautiful place with so much history existed so close to us. It was like stepping back in time!”
The visit was more than just a field trip—it was a lesson in culture, respect for heritage, and the importance of spirituality in everyday life. R.M. Public School remains committed to providing experiences that are both educational and enriching for its students, ensuring they stay connected to their roots while embracing modern learning.
“Learning is not just about books—it’s also about stepping out, seeing, and experiencing the world. At Purmandal, we learned, we explored, and we grew.”
