From Darkness to Light
Donyi Polo Vidya Bhawan
Founded on 14th November 1981 under the noble guidance of the Donyi Polo Mission, Donyi Polo Vidya Bhawan fulfills the visionary dream of Shri Gegong Apang, the 3rd Chief Minister of Arunachal Pradesh. Established with the belief that every child deserves world-class education within the state, this top boarding school began its journey in a serene, nature-filled corner of Itanagar. What started as a humble primary school with just three students has flourished into the best integrated school in the region, seamlessly blending academic rigor with character building.
Rooted in a philosophy of secularism and tranquility, we have earned a reputation as a school with sports excellence, dedicated to shaping disciplined and knowledgeable citizens for over four decades. Today, under the dynamic leadership of Mrs. Alison Welly—an accomplished entrepreneur and educationist—the institution has entered a new era. By pairing a modern global outlook with the expertise of the best teacher faculty, Donyi Polo Vidya Bhawan continues to stand as a premier residential school, nurturing the minds and values of the next generation of leaders.
