This organisation is established in the year 1963 under Societies Registration Act, Govt. of Karnataka. It has been serving the society for more than 55 years in the field of education, upliftment of students belonging to labourers, farmers and other economically backward communities. With the blessings of his holiness Sri Sri Sri Shivakumara Swamiji of the Siddaganga Mutt, the first institution viz., Kannada Medium High School, initiated with a section of about 60 students. Presently, the organisation is spread over 5 acres of land and caters to about 5000 students pursuing kindergarten to under-graduate courses, with institutions like Higher Primary School, English Medium High School, ICSE School, Pre-University College and First Grade College. This is an institution rooted in the tradition and values of our motherland. It aims to empower rural students through a holistic, meaningful, dynamic and disciplined education.
Back in 1963, there were hardly any schools teaching beyond class four. Children wanting to study class 5th to 7th had to either go to Attibele, Hebbagodi, Muthanallur or Anekal. Small kids were forced to walk their way to school for want of vehicles. Many children, especially girls dropped out of the school for the same reason. High school education was available only at Attibele, Anekal and Bangalore. A few like-minded people from neighbouring villages of Chandapura, deliberated on the situation and met at Sri Kodanda Rama Swamy Temple at Chandapura on 07/06/1963. Under the stewardship of Dr. N Rajappa, MBBS, Neraluru, after prolonged discussions, it was decided to initiate a High School from the academic year 1963-64. A Management Committee was constituted. The founders of the society were Sri. Thimmaraya Reddy, President, Chandapura Grama Panchayat, Secretary was Sri. Patel Bidda Reddy, Thirumagondanahalli, Vice President, Neralur Grama Panchayat. Treasurer was Sri.H.Thimmayya Reddy, President of Ramasagara Grama Panchayat, Vice President was Sri P.Venkataramana Reddy and Sri R. Thimma Reddy, BA was choosen as correspondent. 23 members were choosen unanimously to lead the historic management Committee. SVRE Society got registered and recognised by the Government of Karnataka in 1963.
Divine Inspiration and Philanthropic zeal lead the founder President to donate 15 Guntas(i.e 16335sqft) of land for the construction of a school building. The land was registered on 05/11/1964 at the Sub Register office. This laid a strong foundation for the start of the school. Classes for 8th, started with 67 students at the room provided by our director Sri K Muni Reddy. Chandapura. Later at the site of Kodanda Rama Swamy Temple premises. A building constructed with sarvey(i.e casarino) poles and mangalore tiles. On 11/11/1964, a foundation stone was laid by his holiness Sri Sri Sri Shivakumara Swamiji of Siddaganga Mutt, Tumkur on the land donated for the purpose. Many management members donated generously to the construction of the school building. It is praise worthy to put on record the contribution of Smt.
