A sacred start

Growing With Five Elements

The Upanishads teach that at the dawn of all creation, the Pancha Mahabhutas—the five great elements—were the first to emerge.

Taking inspiration from the same, we have crafted a curriculum based on those five primordial elements. The classical fivefold division of Prakriti (nature or matter) into Prithivih, Aapah, Tejah, Vayuh, and Aakashah holds deep symbolic meaning, signifying the origins of all creation in the universe around us.

What do the Panchamahabhuta inspire in our curriculum?

There is a lot that our children can learn from the Pancha Mahabhutas, especially as they, too, stand at the threshold of a sacred beginning—the beginning of their educational journey.

A journey from the comfort of the mother's lap to the adventures of the outside world. This journey will shape them into individuals who are thoughtful, admirable, joyful, and worth celebrating—a beautiful part of the creation that surrounds us, truly connected to the world.

Tejah (Fire)

Tejah, representing fire or brilliance, encourages us to shine brightly. We design activities that help children become comfortable in the spotlight, instilling confidence, especially when all eyes are on them. By nurturing their self-assurance, we help them overcome shyness and timidity, allowing them to flourish and radiate like stars.

Vayuh (Air)

Vayuh, the element of air, reminds us of the importance of agility. We teach our kids to be thinkers and doers. Air reminds us to never loose momentum in life, keep finishing tasks, keep solving problems, keep having fun, keep moving ahead at all times.

Aapah (Water)

Aapah, the element of water, reminds us of the importance of flexibility. Just as water adapts to the shape of its container without losing its essence, we teach our children to be adaptable and inventive. Through creative problem-solving activities, they learn to think outside the box—an essential trait of highly successful individuals.

Aakashah (Space)

Aakashah, symbolizing sky or space, imparts the values of equality and empathy. We all live beneath the same sky and breathe the same air. We instill in our children the importance of sharing, compassion, and unity—qualities found in the greatest of human beings.

Prithivih (Earth)

From Prithivih, we draw inspiration to provide our children with a strong and stable foundation of self. Our well-rounded curriculum fosters the development of confident, resilient personalities and healthy, active bodies.
