What is the Gurmat Academy?
The Devanhaar Gurmat Academy (DGA), located at Singh Sabha Gurdwara, Handsworth Wood, Birmingham, is a dedicated space for students to deepen their understanding of Sikhi through Gurbani Santhiya, Sikh history, Gurbani understanding, philosophy and Seva.
The academy offers various opportunities, including trips, activities, Gurmat camps, and mentorship from dedicated Sevadaars. Many students have made significant progress in their Nitnem Santhiya and have gone on to become key Sevadaars.
Parents have noted their children's increased engagement with Sikhi at home, inspiring them to complete Nitnem and take an active role in Seva. Join us in nurturing the next generation of Sikh leaders!
