A school built for Popular Nagar families
Popular Nagar is a dense, well-established residential colony in Warje, predominantly home to Marathi-speaking families from government service, teaching, and skilled trades who have lived in the area for many years. The neighbourhood has a close-knit community feel, where residents share information about schools through personal networks rather than relying solely on online research. Parents in Popular Nagar typically prioritise schools that are structured, communicative, and academically rigorous – they want to know exactly what their child is doing each day and trust that the school has a clear plan. Walnut School’s WalSH parent app, daily worksheet system, and regular parent-teacher meetings match the kind of transparent, involved school experience that Popular Nagar families value.
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.

Frequently Asked Questions — Popular nagar
How will I know what my child is doing in school each day?
Every day, Walnut shares digital copies of classwork worksheets, homework details, and lesson updates through the WalSH parent app. You do not need to call the school or wait for a PTM to know what is happening in your child’s classroom.
Does Walnut School have separate PTMs for each subject?
Yes. Walnut conducts one online PTM and one offline PTM per unit, held separately for each subject teacher. You get detailed, subject-specific feedback rather than a general update.
My child is currently in Std. 3 at another school. Can they join Walnut mid-year?
Yes. Walnut has a bridge programme specifically for students who join from other schools. The team helps your child catch up to the Walnut level and settle in comfortably before the academic pace picks up.
Is the no-bag policy genuinely practical or does it create confusion at home?
It is fully practical. All textbooks are kept at school in subject-wise classrooms. Worksheets come home daily as homework material and are filed at home to form a notebook. Parents find the system very organised once they see it running.
How far is the Shivane campus from Popular Nagar?
The Shivane campus on NDA Road is approximately 4 to 5 kilometres from Popular Nagar. The school bus covers this route daily and the commute is comfortable for children.
