About Us

The Guru Nanak Sikh Schools have enjoyed phenomenal success since opening as a state school in September 1999. The schools have been praised by local, national and international communities for its vision of transforming the youngsters of today into hard working, high achieving but humble citizens of tomorrow, who will aim to help humanity rather than take from it.

The first Parkash festival was held in 2008 which is a religious Sikh festival organised and hosted by Guru Nanak Sikh Academy and supported by the Nanaksar Trust. The purpose of the festival is to raise funds for the development of educational facilities and sports activities at the Academy.
