Child centered learning is the key note at Shemford Futuristic School, Pinjore. The motive has always been to induce interest in learning so that learning comes alive. As the annual examination is approaching, it is a great pleasure to see the young Shemstars so confident with mathematical calculations. This has been possible with the Abacus classes functioning along with the regular mathematics periods. With Abacus, children have learnt easy, quick and accurate methods of calculations. The parents remark, “It gives immense satisfaction to see our children comfortable in a subject like mathematics.”  Our young Shemstar Angelica Piplani also exhibited her expertise on the National television, India’s Best Dramebaaz, and mesmerized the entire nation with her mathemagic expertise. The school aims to continue to adopt any possible approach both in scholastic and co scholastic areas to groom the children into confident SHEMSTARS.
