Were you part of the Oriental Academy story?

Once I sat on these benches as a student, and today I stand here as a teacher. Truly a proud moment for me.

Best school of Jammu. I passed out in 1966, when it went only up to Middle standard. My best wishes.

I'm grateful to be a product of this school. The patience and guidance here gave us the confidence to speak correctly. We were taught that big success starts with small habits.

Late Sh. V.P. Chouhan, who shaped me, and senior teachers like Sh. Vadhawa Mal, Sh. Shyam Lal, and many others. My school teachers have been the guiding lights of my life, shaping not only my education but also my character.

With patience, dedication, and kindness, they inspired me to dream big, work hard, and believe in myself. They taught me the importance of honesty, discipline, and respect, lessons that continue to guide me every day. Their encouragement during difficult times and appreciation for every small achievement gave me the confidence to face life's challenges. I will always remain grateful to my teachers, whose wisdom, care, and selfless service have left an everlasting impression on my heart. They are the true architects of my career and deserve my deepest respect and gratitude. Rameshwar Singh Jamwal

From Nursery to Class 12, Oriental Academy was more than just my school, it was the foundation of my life. It didn't just give me an education; it shaped who I am today.
This is where I learned to lead, to face failures with courage, to think differently, to manage responsibilities, and to believe in myself. Every lesson, every challenge, and every opportunity has helped me in one way or another throughout my journey.
Make the most of your time here. Participate, learn beyond textbooks, embrace failures, and never stop growing. The experiences you gain today will stay with you for life.
Wishing all the future students of Oriental Academy the very best. Dream big, work hard, and make your school proud.

With gratitude,
An alumnus who will always be proud to call Oriental Academy home.

School life never ends....

Proud to be part of Oriental Academy in 1962-64 under the personal supervision of Respected Sh Ved Prakash Chouhan, Sh Sham Lalji and Sh Sansar Chand Baruji. I am really indebted to these Gurus who shaped my life and character to be a good human being. शत् शत् प्रणाम

Oriental Academy, Jammu, stands as a beacon of quality education and moral values. I'm grateful for the foundation it provided me during my time there from 1993 to 2007. Thank you to all my teachers, especially Vivek Chouhan ji, Shruti Mam, and the late Shri VP Chouhan ji.

My school Oriental Academy holds a special place in my heart. It is where I received my education, where my siblings also studied, and where I later had the privilege of teaching. This school has shaped my life in many ways, giving me knowledge, values, and lifelong memories.

The teachings here have been shaping lives for generations. I'm grateful for the education I received, especially in grammar, courtesy of our esteemed Principal Sir and Neelam Chopra Ma'am. About 30 years ago I left the school but memories are fresh and I feel proud to be part of it.

My Almamater, the place I worship; the school which shapened me into what I am today. Sh. V.P. Chauhan ji, the most adorable person on earth for me, whose encouragement led to my achievements in my life. Always indebted to my School. A proud student.
