Pine Grove Group of Institutes was formed by dynamic, dedicated educationist and great visionaries. As a result of their dedicated efforts we have established a tradition of creating new courses responding to the needs of the community and in keeping with our National aspirations.
Keeping to our motto ‘HIGHER, STRONGER & BRIGHTER’.
There is no shortcut to hard work, hence at Pine Grove, we aim to reach our achievement through determination and hard work. We have incorporated this into our motto, which always motivates each child to put his/her best effort to work with determination to achieve his goal in life.
From the famous religious shrine of Fatehgarh sahib (Sirhind) connected with the martyrdom of the brave sons of the tenth Guru of Sikhs Guru Gobind Singh Ji, the campus is 8 kilometers away. Also it is linked up with a cluster of villages on all sides. Thus, the campus provides an ideal setting for an educational institute on the main highway with a web of connecting roads on all sides in the lush green fields blessed with bounties of nature in full bloom. The open environment is frequently echoed by the sound of cooing peacocks (National Bird) , which are found in plenty. The institution is in a completely rural setting marked by a network of roads which makes it a Shanti Niketan of Tagore’s dreams.
