Dear Parent,

A warm hello from Oakridge!

It has been close to ten years (in 2001) since we introduced Hyderabad to international education. While on one side the journey has been challenging so far, it has also been more than rewarding. When we started off, the objective was to give the city a smarter generation of children, every single year. We’ve succeeded in doing that, as today Oakridgers are going everywhere, finding their place in top institutes like the Stanford University, London School of Economics, Queen Mary College (London) and Georgia School of Technology.

Back then, we started with the Gachibowli campus with a few hundred students, and today it’s a learning center to over 2500 children. This growth clearly acknowledges the changing demands, and that Hyderabad’s children need a school that can prepare them to compete globally. While this growth is good, it also represents the growing aspirations of more and more parents. For us, this necesassitated the setting up of another Oakridge campus. The one at Bachupally, in 2009.

The starting of the Bachupally campus meant the need for education that can become the bridge to global opportunities – be it universities, sports or art. We are glad to be able to meet these demands and expectations of parents, who trust us to nurture their child into someone who can stand up and hold their head high anywhere.

But then again, growth has taken a new meaning at Oakridge. It has led us to look back at people whose contributions have tranformed the world completely. Without which, the world couldn’t have made the progress it has. We take inspiration from Sir Isaac Newton and Albert Einstein, two of the world’s greatest genuises, as we proudly announce the renaming of the two Oakridge campuses in their honour.

From now on, Oakridge International School, Gachibowli becomes Oakridge International School, Newton Campus and Oakridge International School, Bachupally becomes Oakridge International School, Einstein Campus. We see this change as something that will inspire our children to do something world-changing, and be remembered forever, just like the icons their schools will be referred to as, from now on.

Looking forward to the best and your wishes at this juncture.

Warm Regards
