The story of Apple Valley Pre-School begins with a vision to provide the young minds of Rajahmundry the finest possible start in life. Founded in 1991, we began our journey with a handful of students and a dedication to nurturing childhood.
Over three decades later, now known as Rajahmundry's Apple Valley Pre-School, we continue to honor that original vision. We believe in providing an environment that is rich, stimulating, and filled with learning opportunities.
A look back at how we have grown and evolved to serve generations of families in Rajahmundry.
Founded by Mrs. Lalitha Gathey in Rajahmundry, starting with a small class of 10 eager children.

We group our little learners into four classes based on age to customize their cognitive development.

Focus: Sensory discovery, basic communication, emotional safety, sharing habits.
Age: 3 – 4 years

Age: 5 – 6 years

We follow a child-centric, play-based approach to early learning. Rather than forcing children into rigid academic models, we focus on their natural curiosity—helping them build communication, creative thinking, and confidence through guided play.
Every child is nurtured in a safe and caring environment that reflects the warmth and comfort of home.
We balance language development, basic mathematics, creative arts, and physical activities.
