“It takes a village to raise a child”.
This cliché comes to mind when we make plans to buy a home for our family. If we have a choice, we look for a healthy, wealthy, happy community to live in. We ask: What do our children want? What do we as parents want? Cleanliness, safety, sports facilities, convenience, great schools nearby – and a future-perfect community which will help our family develop social, emotional, and interpersonal skills as well as meet long-term educational goals.
For instance, you may be busy working parents who want the school bus to meet your child at a safe spot where your child’s classmates wait too. Or you know you will belate from work sometimes, and so you look for a neighbourhood where your child can hang out productively until you get home. It could be that you want for your child to have access to a playdate environment where people look out for each other.
Aesthetics play an essential part of learning. They bring calm and centeredness. Research has shown that layout, colours, and imagery can bring positive emotions to learners, helping them to discover new ways of activity and intelligence. Our constructed environment inculcates self-respect and teaches mutual respect. Its architecture endows meaning and symbolism on the people it houses. All these, apart from the convenience of having good educational institutions nearby, are what we look for to enable holistic student development.
Here’s where Hiranandani Parks, Oragadam, comes in. The neo-classical architecture of this integrated township reflects permanence and tradition which have been creatively improved by making them relevant to contemporary times. At play is an anaesthetic that is compatible with conservation and greening of the environment, with an 80% green cover.
