Campus

Glendale Academy is nestled in a beautiful valley, in a serene, pollution-free environment in Hyderabad. The sprawling 10-acre campus and 2,25,000 square feet of buildings have been ergonomically designed with a spacious campus providing stupendous 95 square feet space per student. 

The meticulously landscaped campus cradles facilities for a wide range of sports, extra-curricular and outdoor activities. The alluring range of flora is not only a treat to the eye, but also educative to young minds.

The radiant interiors foster quality learning. Sports & games fields, an athletic track, life skills development studios, a multi-purpose mirrored gym/hall & a learning resource centre complete the picture for unbridled growth. The sports centre provides an indoor table tennis, carom and chess facility, karate room, tennis and squash courts and a standard swimming pool are on the campus.

The unique adventure playground provides an imaginative play space, where play takes the form of physical as well as social conditioning to build relationships even while building bodies.

The central courtyard epitomises the essence of Glendale featuring a flourishing valley of water bodies, outdoor classrooms, interesting walks and bridges, stepped terrace greens and an amphitheatre. The picturesque backdrop of compelling rocks is symbolic of inner strength that our children develop.
