About Iris Florets

A BITS Pilani & IIM Alumni Initiative

Iris Florets – the happy play school is designed around the child in an earnest effort to create a world of happiness not just for the children, but also their parents. We believe, even though children are performing well in academics and sports at school, their creativity, thinking capabilities, independence and leadership qualities are not developing the way they should. Hence, we felt there is a need for a change in the education system to tap and harness these four main qualities in children.

Thus, Iris Florets was born. A happy space where every child enters the school with a smile and walks out with giggles and chuckles.
