About Us
Auckland House School for Boys stands proudly on the historic Belvedere Estate, a site where the footsteps of royalty and nobility once echoed through its halls.The estate was home to Alexander Jacob, a man whose influence reached into the highest echelons of British India. Known as the “uncrowned king of Simla,” Jacob’s name is forever entwined with the history of this place, particularly for his connection to the famed Jacob Diamond. Within these very halls, decisions were made, deals brokered, and history written by those who shaped the colonial world.
Principal’s message:
“The mind is not a vessel to be filled but a fire to be kindled.”
Plutarch Gentlemen, Welcome Back.
With your return, the dormancy of winter has given way to life. These halls, once quiet and waiting, now pulse with life, purpose, and the promise of what we will achieve together. Plutarch’s words serve as our compass this year. Education here is not about filling the mind with mere facts; it is about sparking a fire—a fire that illuminates your path and inspires those who walk beside you.
