Their Story

Mr. Surenmeroll Thakore was one of the founding visionaries behind the establishment of Hebron Education Trust in 1966. With a belief in the transformative power of education, he helped lay the foundation for an institution committed to nurturing young minds and preparing them for the future.

What began as a vision has grown over six decades into a lasting educational legacy, touching generations of students, educators and families.

Though the years have passed, the values and vision with which Hebron began continue to guide its journey today.

His vision became the foundation. His legacy continues through generations.
