A School built for Dahanukar Colony families

Dahanukar Colony is a well-established and respected residential colony in Kothrud, predominantly home to Marathi families from teaching, government service and senior professional backgrounds who have been rooted here for decades. The colony has a strong community identity and a culture of valuing education deeply. Parents here are typically experienced in evaluating schools and are not easily swayed by surface-level features. What Dahanukar Colony families look for in a school is substance: a curriculum that genuinely challenges the child, teachers who track progress individually and an institution that communicates honestly and regularly with parents. Walnut School’s individual child assessment, unit wise parent-teacher meetings and daily parent app updates align closely with the informed, involved approach to school selection that Dahanukar Colony families bring.

Documents and Procedure

Joining Walnut is a simple, guided process no confusion, no running around. Start with a visit to your nearest campus during office hours, where our admission counsellor will walk you through everything and conduct a short student interaction. Once that is done, submit the required documents, complete the application form and pay the applicable fees. That is it your child is enrolled. If you are not in Pune, we are happy to schedule an online counselling session so distance is never a barrier. For the complete step-by-step details, visit our admission procedure page.
