The institution caters to the educational needs of the middle class. The low fees charged by the school enables the middle class families to put in their children who do not have high aspirations.
The effort put in by the staff increases, to mould these children and inspire them on to the right path. But then the mental satisfaction of having produced some worthwhile material, which would enrich the society, is there at the end of the road.
These students who reap the benefit of quality education, at a very low cost remain lifelong indebted to their Alma Mater.
Principal's Message

Bai Kabibai & Hansraj Morarji Charity Trust
Bai Kabibai & Hansraj Morarji Charity Trust
Established: 20 March 1926
By: Bai Kabibai & Seth Hansraj Morarji
The Bai Kabibai and Hansraj Morarji Charity Trust carries a rich legacy of philanthropy, vision, and nation-building. In the mid-1920s, renowned businessman and philanthropist Seth Hansraj Morarji, along with his noble wife Bai Kabibai, took the extraordinary decision to donate their entire wealth for the cause of education and public good. This selfless act gave birth to the Bai Kabibai & Hansraj Morarji Charity Trust in 1926.
From its very inception, the Trust was closely associated with India.s freedom struggle and national leaders. One of the founding trustees was Shri K.M. Munshi, a freedom fighter, statesman, and visionary educationist. With a dream to establish a public school offering quality education to Indian children, he laid the foundation of Hansraj Morarji Public School in June 1939. It began as a residential school in three bungalows off Ghod Bundar Road with about 50 students.
In 1938, Dr. Munshi acquired a large tract of land in Andheri, Mumbai. Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel laid the foundation stone for the hostel building on 28 January 1940. Despite the challenges posed by World War II.including multiple relocations to Vadtal in Gujarat and Worli in Bombay.the school finally moved back to its permanent Andheri campus in 1946. The new school building was inaugurated by Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru on 19 August 1962, after its ceremonial Khat-Muhurat performed by Dr. Munshi.
In the formative years, the school was honored by the presence of eminent national figures such as Shri C. Rajagopalachari, Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, Shri Jayaprakash Narayan, and Maulana Abul Kalam Azad, who engaged with students and inspired generations.
Originally, the school followed Gujarati as the medium of instruction, in accordance with Bombay Government policy. Later, English was introduced following a Supreme Court verdict. In 1953, due to declining demand for residential schooling, the school began admitting day scholars, and by 1957 it had become a full-fledged member of the Indian Public School Conference.
The Trust's Educational Legacy
Today, the Trust runs prestigious institutions across two major campuses in Mumbai:
Andheri Campus (Hansraj Morarji Public School Campus . 28 acres lush green grounds)
- Hansraj Morarji Public School & Junior College (1939, Maharashtra State Board)

Whether you are an ex-student or a current student, whether you are part of English School or High School or Junior College, if you have some thing to share on the website, please contact me. I would love to hear from you and publish any experiences, stories, memories, photos, etc.
My thoughts looking back in time: A good school gives you an education and a great school empowers you to use your education. This school has been an integral part of my life and has created a strong value system within that has helped me counter all personal and professional challenges across my academic and professional life. Some of my closest friends today are the same friends I had while in school. The importance the school gave to sport was incredible. Sport helped me deal with success and failure in all aspects of life.
