In 1986 the Foundation began planning the school. The Pune Centre of the Krishnamurti Foundation saw the birth of Sahyadri School in September 1995. Through the efforts of Shri Achyut Patwardhan, and help from many well-wishers, the school was inaugurated on 10 September 1995 (Krishnamurti Birth Centenary Year). It is the second youngest of the KFI schools.
