Rainbow Preschool International: Most Promising Preschool Chain of Maharashtra
The 'Most Promising Preschool Chain of the Year – Maharashtra' award was for Rainbow Preschool International (RPS), the preschool network associated with Rainbow International School. This recognition reflects RPS's rapid growth, the consistent quality of its early childhood programmes, and its distinctive educational philosophy of play-based, child-centred learning.
For Jr KG and Sr KG, families can continue at an RPS centre or join the Pre-Primary section at Rainbow International School in Brahmand. After Sr KG, children can apply for Class 1 at Rainbow International School.

It is an honour to serve the families of Thane, and this award deepens our commitment to being the school of first choice for every family in our community.'
