About the school: Way back in 1926 a group of youths, belonging to the "Oswal Community" formed a "Samiti" with an energetic exuberance to put together a "Vyayamshala" - an indigenous Indian gymnasium, for self-fitness through physical health exercises. But on looking back after more than eight decades, history unfolds the fact that this "Vyayamshala of 1926" was actually a launching pad to spark off series after series of such remarkable feats, which were not only befitting in accordance with the current times and tides but they also undeniably imprinted themselves into the social fabric in bold and colourful sketches. Even with the wash of tides, the ripples carried forward sparkling messages stretching down the time line even after the eight long decades.
