- A classroom to remain a safe, consistent, and engaging space supported by dedicated teachers who are their friends and mentors.
We have already seen what sustained support can unlock and the outcomes have been extraordinary. In 2025, our very first batch of Grade 10 students, all 15 of them passed with first division, in a year when the state pass percentage dropped below 64%. Not one child was left behind. Today, they are continuing their education in cities like Bangalore and Chennai, all of them the first in their families to ever step into such spaces. Prashanta, our alumni, is now training at the Chennai Super Kings Academy carrying with him to play for the Indian Cricket Team someday. And in December 2025, something remarkable happened. Our Grade 9 students organised and raised ₹5 lakhs on their own and brought to life the region’s only student-led Children’s Literary Festival, welcoming close to 1,000 people each day over three days. We believe, these are outcomes of consistency and not chance.
To support a child in receiving high-quality context-based education at the Hummingbird School, we invite you to join our “Adopt a Hummingbird” initiative, supporting a child’s education at ₹4,000 per month (₹48,000 per academic year).This recurring contribution supports teacher salaries, learning materials, and the everyday ecosystem that allows a child to learn with dignity. More importantly, it ensures that no child has to pause their education because support fell through. If this resonates with you, we would be grateful to have you as part of this journey.
