Welcome to an Educational Institution that aims to set a benchmark for others!
Goldcrest High has been founded under the aegis of MCT-The MANJARA CHARITABLE TRUST established in 1988, under the leadership of the visionary and philanthropist, Honourable Shri Vilasrao Deshmukh.
The school looks to providing an education that promotes intellectual freedom, teaches children to live in harmony and to appreciate the diversity of our cultures and communities.
The school's excellent facilities are designed to enhance the academic and physical development of children. The staff is committed to developing global citizens who will make a difference to society and eventually the world.
This education system will develop within the child the full range of human capacities - intellectual, social, physical and spiritual. It will instill a thirst for knowledge and foster a desire for excellence.
In a nutshell, it is Goldcrest High's goal to evolve into a true Learning Centre whose students will be enabled to fly 'on the wings of excellence'.
To shape students into caring, courageous and capable global citizens and to provide an education that would promote the stable and successful future of our children and be a life-long asset to them
To provide integrated value education that nurtures global wisdom, preserves Indian culture and enables students to shine in all walks of life.
Goldcrest High believes in providing children with an environment that integrates individual and group learning, knowledge, values, reasoning and creativity into a seamless mix of experiences, discoveries and excitement. Goldcrest High is designed to be a true centre of learning, a place where students enjoy the thrill of learning new things each day. Here learning is not an imposition but an excitement and the key to a greater freedom than they have ever known.
Inspired by Rabindranath Tagore's vision for an educated community, Goldcrest High imbibes the spirit of creativity and co-curricular excellence that complements the academic learning beautifully.
Goldcrest High aims at providing an education that promotes intellectual freedom, teaches children to live in harmony and to appreciate the diversity of our cultures and communities.
Goldcrest High imparts quality education keeping in mind the total development of the child.
We endeavour to design our educational processes on the basis that the future of this world rests upon the overall competence, sensibility and goodness of its youth. The need of the hour is to raise our children in such a way that they lead a good quality life and become responsible global citizens of the future.
We thus have to educate them not only with instruction but also by drawing out their hidden potential with all the attention and care that they deserve.
The purpose of providing quality education is manifold. Apart from making them more knowledgeable and good problem solvers, it enables students to live their life fully at all ages, prepares them for challenges ahead and grooms them in noble culture values. Still higher than this aim is that it creates in students a thirst for greater knowledge.
Goldcrest High imparts this quality education keeping in mind the total development of the child. Children get a modern education in an atmosphere that preserves the rich Indian culture, values achievement, builds character and enriches these young minds. Most of all the school enshrines the dignity and self-worth of each individual.
Honourable Shri. Vilasrao Deshmukh
Founder
"Since the time of its inception in 2008, I have seen how well the Goldcrest Group of Schools has preserved and honored the vision of its Founder, Hon. Shri Vilasrao Deshmukh.
Goldcrest High, Vashi was the first to be established under the aegis of Manjara Charitable Trust whose primary goal was to impart education to children in all walks of life. I applaud the efforts of all those associated with the School in creating an institution that stays true to the vision and ideals of the Trust while simultaneously preparing students to deal with the complex challenges of the outside world.
My very best wishes to Goldcrest high, Vashi for its continued success."
Mr Diliprao Deshmukh
Message from the President - Manjara Charitable Trust
The aim of education is the development of that bent of mind, that attitude of reason, that spirit of democracy which will make global citizens. Goldcrest High seeks to create an education system that would develop within the child the full range of human capacities- intellectual, social, physical and spiritual; an education that would instill a thirst for knowledge and foster a desire for excellence. Such aspirations acquired in childhood will determine the child's future life.
Today, it is the concern of all parents that their children grow up to be happy, well-educated and good human beings. To enable this to happen, parents and schools have to explore creative methods of teaching. At Goldcrest High, our endeavour is to harness depths of our ancient heritage and adapt them to the modern world. Creative sports and ancient techniques such as yoga, as a part of a child's learning process, add a dimension to learning that instills in the child confidence and discipline at a deeper level. The path to holistic education is made up of many such small steps. It is the endeavour of the Trust, the Board, and teachers to provide our students with the tools needed for a happy and fulfilling life.
Amit Deshmukh
Executive Trustee
The genesis of Goldcrest High, Vashi, established in 2009, was a commitment to and love for the cause of education that took into account the needs of today’s children in a constantly changing and shrinking world. We opened its doors in the belief that a school is the heart of a community, and in the knowledge that as our wards streamed through our doors they brought with them their aspirations and hopes as also those of their parents and caregivers.
Teachers, parents and other stakeholders have to continually re-invent themselves if they hope to fulfil these hopes and aspirations. Our young learners are exposed to information in a way never seen before. As such, their educators would need to meet the challenge of providing an education that is at par with world requirements and one that does justice to their abilities.
Goldcrest High’s Vision and Mission reflect the Education Goal of the United Nations – one that aims to “ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all.” In pursuit of this, we leverage best-known practices to create an education system that prepares teachers and students for the challenges and opportunities of the 21st century and which would also contribute to the national economic and social growth. It will take an entire community and very intentional efforts on the part of parents, teachers and students to contribute towards this growth.
