The Orchid
School gets it's name from the orchid flower.
Orchids were the first flowering plants to
evolve around 120 million years ago, when
the mighty dinosaurs roamed the earth.
The dinosaurs became extinct; so did many
species of plants and animals. But the orchid
family expanded. Soon orchids were present
in all corners of the world, except Antarctica.
Today they thrive almost everywhere- on trees,
rocks, in and under the ground, on mountains
and in swamps. There are around 35,000 different
species of orchids in existence in various
shapes and sizes.
Orchids are among the most successful and
adaptable family of plants. They are often
cited as great examples of peaceful and mutually
beneficial co-existence in nature. Orchids
were here long before humans. The orchid has
survived the different stages of evolution
by adapting to the changing climate, waiting
for the right time & opportunities to
bloom.
We at The Orchid School believe in teaching
children the skills for adapting to and working
with challenging situations. We teach children
how to learn, trying to create a community
of life long learners, able to adapt to any
situation locally or globally.
