Koloru Village Moves Closer to Better Schooling as Groundbreaking Takes Place for New Classrooms

A collaborative effort led by Rotary Clubs and supported by Cigna India aims to give students a safer, brighter and more engaging learning space

Koloru Village in Doddaballapura Taluk marked an important milestone as the Rotary Clubs of Rotary Bangalore Lakeside and Rotary Bengaluru South Samarpane, in partnership with Cigna India, held the Bhoomi Pooja for a new classroom block at the Government Higher Primary School. The initiative forms a key part of the Happy School Project, which focuses on strengthening basic education and literacy through meaningful infrastructure improvements.

The project is supported by a CSR contribution of approximately thirty three point three four lakh rupees from Cigna India. The funding will help upgrade essential facilities, create safer learning spaces and make the school environment more conducive to student engagement. The broader aim is to support learning outcomes in rural communities where better infrastructure can directly influence attendance, retention and student performance.

The ceremony brought together employees of Cigna India, Rotarians from both participating clubs, village panchayat members, officials from the education department, school staff and students. Their collective presence highlighted the spirit of community participation and shared responsibility in improving educational access.
The Happy School initiative is built on the belief that a cheerful and well maintained school environment encourages children to attend regularly and participate more actively. Upgrading classrooms, providing basic amenities and creating functional learning spaces can have a transformative impact, especially in rural government schools.

Rotary representatives noted that the project reflects the organisation’s continued commitment to strengthening education in underserved regions. They emphasised that infrastructure improvements often serve as the foundation on which quality learning experiences are built. The new classroom block is expected to ease existing space constraints and provide students with an environment that supports focus, creativity and confidence.

The event concluded with a vote of thanks to Cigna India, local leaders, school authorities, teachers and parents who have supported the initiative. Community members expressed optimism that the new facility will create long lasting benefits for children in Koloru Village and contribute to their overall academic growth and well being.
