Some Lessons Cannot be Taught from Textbooks Alone

The Living Classroom brings children face-to-face with the living world — allowing them to observe animals closely, ask questions, and understand life through real experiences.

This session is conducted in collaboration with Prani – The Pet Sanctuary, known for ethical animal care and experiential learning programmes for children.

Learning that begins after the bell and stays with them.

At NAAVU, learning doesn’t end with textbooks or worksheets.
 Our Extended Learning Programme is designed as a space where children learn by doing; using their hands, voices, materials, and imagination.

These after-school workshops focus on real-life skills:
 thinking, making, expressing, collaborating, and problem-solving.
 No worksheets. No rote outcomes. Just meaningful, hands-on learning.

Each workshop runs for 1 hour after school, led by NAAVU educators, in small groups that allow children to explore deeply and confidently.
