It was in 1953 when Mr. J.J Sookias and his wife. Mrs. M. Sookias started this school in Dehradun and called it, 'The Doon Cultural Centre'

With just a handful of students to start with, the school rapidly grew in strength and skills and came to be recognized as among the best in the Valley. A school where a multifaceted education was being imparted to the young entrusted to its care. An evening club was also started and the success of this enterprise lay in the large numbers of students who joined this club. There were many students from neighbouring schools who availed the facilities of the school grounds to hone their skills in various sports and cultural activities.

The School thus assumed significance as a full-day school.

Many Doonites even today, nostalgically and proudly recall fond memories of their association with this great institution. This rich legacy of the past is made even richer today, when the campus resounds with the joy and cheer of the young, learning to live life at different levels, be it the development of their skills, their senses or the enrichment of their soul.

The future holds an exciting challenge for the students of The Heritage School. Our learning environment plays a vital role to ensure that our students are equipped with the right mix of personal values clubbed with effective learning skills.
