Aariv Gupta, a Pre-nursery student at Apeejay Rhythms Kinderworld in Jalandhar, has come a long way from his initial days of shyness. In a quick chat, his mother, Mrs. Sakshi Gupta, talks about how Aariv’s school experiences have helped him develop a love for learning, build friendships, and show enthusiasm for creative activities like drawing and dance.

How is Aariv performing at school?

Aariv is doing very well. He’s naturally shy, and last year he hardly spoke in class since it was his first year. But now, he’s adjusted and is always excited to go to school. He’s even made friends in his class.

Does he ever cry when going to school in the morning?

 Not at all (laughs). In fact, it’s quite the opposite. When I go to pick him up, he doesn’t want to leave! The scenario has completely changed.

Which subjects or activities does he enjoy the most?

Aariv loves drawing, and he’s thrilled to be learning a dance for the upcoming annual function. At home, he practices his dance moves all on his own.

Does he have any other particular interests?

He’s fascinated by mechanics and shows a natural intelligence for it. Any activity he learns at school, he recreates at home, whether it’s with colors, paper, or other materials.

Are you satisfied with the school overall as a parent?

Mrs. Sakshi Gupta: Absolutely. I am very happy with the entire staff and the way they teach. It’s a great learning environment for Aariv.
