The sole aim of its establishment was with nurturing the mental, physical, spiritual and intellectual development of the student. Since than, the school has been able to maintain its reputation and impart the best education in this area. The concept of establishing a unique educational institution came from the motto- “Love All Serve All”.
 
     
 
Our school, as you all know, gives strong emphasis to quality rather than quantity. That is the reason why we have been maintaining the same number of students' enrolment each year from the academic year 2048 - the year when this school first appeared for S.L.C. (School Leaving Certificate) Examination till now. School has, always and every year, been scoring a prestigious percentage (100%) as well as division-wise in all the S.L.C. Examinations since 2048. This , of course,
is the result of retention of the quality education. The pillar of success lies in the activities launched by the school and its dedicated staff. It is not less worthy to say that HOLY GARDEN has always been a very lucky institute in this regards to have such qualified, dedicated, laborious and sincere teachers and non-teaching staff too, whose devotional work has always been creating an excellent result in academic field as well as in every extra curricular activities.
