History of PineHall

Situated in the foothills of the Himalayas, in the district of Darjeeling and under Mirik Sub-division, lies a small and serene hamlet of Soureni Bazar. In this small hamlet was born an educational institution with the objective of providing quality English education to the common masses who could not afford to send their children to big towns for the same. So, with this perspective, a dedicated couple, Mr. & Mrs. Nagen Rai, established the school in 1980 and named it PINEHALL ACADEMY. After its establishment, there was no looking back for the institution and the school was affiliated to the Council for Indian School Certificate Examinations, New Delhi in 1998.
