Anita Kerr & Vinay Kerr
Founders
The journey began with Anita and Vinay, two young dreamers who wanted to build a school rooted in compassion and courage, a place where children would feel seen, valued, and capable. With no financial backing or property, they took a leap of faith in 2002, leaving their secure jobs to begin this journey. With nothing but courage in their hearts and hope in their eyes, they turned to Vinay’s parents Priscilla and Simeon, veteran educators who had spent their lives teaching in the hills of Nainital.
“Our story began with no capital, no land, and no institutional support, only faith, a second-hand van, and a dream. We painted the beds ourselves, taught small classes in tin sheds, and took on every role, from teachers to caretakers. Our two-year-old son, Ashwin, grew up in the middle of it all, learning the meaning of community and humility from the very start. There were days of uncertainty, but never a day without purpose. We listened to our children, comforted anxious parents, and built a school where every child felt seen. That emotional foundation, not buildings, is what truly brought us here”, share Anita and Vinay.
Over the years, the school grew steadily, founded on values of kindness, humility, and integrity. Students began excelling not just in academics but also in empathy and leadership, earning admission to top institutions such as IITs, IIMs, NIFT, Leading Medical colleges, Law colleges and pursuing global careers. Today, with their son Ashwin also joining hands to carry forward the legacy, Woodbridge has evolved into a full-fledged CBSE institution up to Class XII, still guided by the same faith and love that built
its first classroom. Dreams built on love, indeed, never fail.
Amidst Nature & Innovation
Nestled in a serene valley surrounded by pine and oak forests, mountains, and lakes, Woodbridge offers a natural sanctuary where young minds can breathe, explore, and grow. The campus features modern classrooms with smart learning systems, athletic tracks, multi-sport arenas, basketball courts, skating and volleyball spaces, badminton and table-tennis halls, a movie/AV room, life skills training spaces, hostels, and hygienic veg and nonveg kitchens.
At Woodbridge, world-class facilities are offered at fair and transparent fees, keeping education accessible. Technology enhances learning through smart boards, digital platforms, and AI-assisted feedback, yet human connection remains central. Mentors guide, support, and inspire every child, ensuring that technology complements, but never replaces, the values, character, and personal growth fostered at the school.
Where Learning Meets Compassion
In today’s fast-paced world, children often face silent emotional pressures, and Woodbridge addresses this through a culture of empathy and mentorship. Every mentor builds a sacred bond with students, listening, guiding, and supporting them through their fears, doubts, and dreams. The school offers a comprehensive curriculum from Nursery to Class XII, enriched with performing arts, theatre, choir, debates, leadership and personality-development workshops, mental wellness programs, competitive sports, and technology-based learning. Beyond academics, the focus remains on building confidence, character, and courage.
Teachers at Woodbridge go beyond lessons, they comfort children when they struggle and celebrate their every success. They recognize that students may fear being unheard or facing competition, so they nurture rather than pressure. Many educators have been part of this journey since inception, growing alongside the school and sustaining its culture of compassion, care, and emotional connection, making Woodbridge not just a school, but truly a home.
Celebrating Transformations
Woodbridge celebrates not just academic toppers, but meaningful transformations. Some of its proudest moments are witnessing children who were once timid, anxious, or hesitant grow into confident, articulate, and emotionally resilient individuals. Students from Woodbridge have gained engineering, law and medical colleges, IIM Ahmedabad and Bengaluru, NIFT, St. Stephen’s, SRCC, Christ, Symbiosis, and premier management institutes abroad.
Beyond these achievements, the school’s true success lies in shaping shy children into leaders, stressed students into balanced individuals, and once-silent voices into sources of inspiration. Each transformation reflects the school’s commitment to mentorship, patience, and nurturing human connection.
A Continuing Journey
The journey at Woodbridge continues with clarity of purpose and unwavering commitment. The school’s vision extends beyond producing achievers, it aims to nurture compassionate leaders, socially conscious citizens, and young individuals who can strive for excellence without losing their kindness. Every program, every interaction, and every mentor-student relationship is designed to help children grow holistically, academically, emotionally, and morally. While Woodbridge will continue to evolve with changing times and new opportunities, its essence remains constant: a belief that every child matters, every story is important, and every dream deserves wings. With this guiding principle, Woodbridge remains a home where hearts, minds, and values flourish together.
