Devotion and classes: The Sunday School starts with a general session from 8.45 am - 9.15 am followed by classes from 9.20 am - 10am. The general session includes a worship time consisting of prayer, songs, the offertory and a presentation based on a Bible passage by one of the teachers.

Curriculum for Sunday School : The Diocesan curriculum and Marthoma Foundation lessons are followed for the entire Sunday School academic year. The curriculum lessons consist of lessons based on Bible passages, appropriate to each Grade level. The Foundation books teach students about the history, organizational structure and other aspects of the Marthoma Church.  All students from Nursery through 10th grade participate in Half Yearly and final examinations. Final examinations for students from 5th to 10th grades are set by the Diocese.
