Who we are – About Prerana Montessori
‘Prerana’ is an inner urge which is present in every soul. It is a constant, continuous & never changing
force which is working at the development of human beings.
​
‘Prerana Montessori’ is an Institute initiated to support this natural force & ‘help the Children to help
themselves’. This institute with a noble vision of becoming a source for helping the ‘young’ human
beings to live for themselves was started by Dhanasu Educational Trust in 2001-2002 by the family of
Chitra and Anantha Padmanabha.
​
After working with young parents & Children since 1996, the couple realized the need for professional &
complete training of oneself to become worthy children. Having gone through the Indian Montessori
Training Courses, the couple decided to dedicate themselves to the cause of children in Montessori
Way.
​
‘Prerana’ is an offering to the children that follows a ‘pure’ Montessori way & has so far seen batches
of children graduating & moving on to most of the prestigious neighboring Institutes successfully. With a
vast experience of more than two decades of working with Children and driven by a strong passion
for Children, Prerana has won the hearts of Children & parents by offering the most scientific &
suitable environment.
​
‘Prerana’ along with other trained & dedicated personnel believes in healthily introducing basic Indian cultural
values. Offering Stories, Rhymes, Bhajans & Arts uniquely has ensured a healthy
& joyous contact, which remains a strong foundation for later years.
​
We know each Child wants to learn in their own way, at their own pace & of their own choice. Being
strong believers in offering freedom at this stage of life, the child here is helped to lead a life of his own.
We welcome all those who believe in the natural energy of the child to experience the grandeur of
Normality at ‘Prerana
