About Us

Our Core Values

Growing Children With Kindness, Confidence & Responsibility

The early years shape a child’s character, habits, confidence and social behaviour. Our values are gently built into everyday school life through routines, play, stories, teacher guidance and shared experiences. Here is what that looks like at Eleganz Kids:

  • Founded by educators

    Eleganz Kids was started by an education psychologist and a former school Principal. What happens in our classrooms is grounded in how young children actually think, feel and learn — not in a franchise manual.

  • Play is the curriculum

    Every idea reaches children through hands-on activity, stories, music, sensory play and time outdoors — all mapped to NEP-aligned early-years milestones, so play and progress are never separate things.

  • Values taught in the everyday

    Kindness and responsibility are not a separate lesson here. Sharing, waiting a turn, tidying up, helping a friend and speaking gently are built into the routines of every single school day.

Eleganz Kids was founded by Dr. E. Umamageswari, a professor and education psychologist whose career has been spent studying how young children think, feel and learn.

Mrs. M. Vijeyalaxmi is a former Principal who brings a career in school leadership, and degrees in both English and Education, to the early years at Eleganz Kids.

The nuclear family, the machine life of young couples and their hyper-active children are what inspired her to start a school built for how children grow up today.

“We wanted to provide an early foundation for the child’s rapid brain growth, active stimulation, and answers to their curious questions.”
