Over 70+ EuroKids centres witnessed the Joy of Navratri being embraced by Young Hearts
Pune : EuroKids Preschool, India's most trusted preschool brand celebrated Navratri, the festival of vibrant dance, colorful attire, and cultural richness. Through celebrating these festivities, the brand reinforces its dedication to instilling values of unity, cultural appreciation, and tradition in young minds. Over 5000 students and parents from 70+ centres across the city enthusiastically participated in the celebration, laying emphasis on preserving age-old traditions, and building strong foundations for the leaders of tomorrow. EuroKids, known for its innovative approach to preschool education, successfully combined cultural immersion and early learning through this delightful celebration.
Navratri is a nine-day festival dedicated to honouring Goddess Durga in her nine divine forms, celebrating the triumph of good over evil, fostering a deep sense of tradition, devotion, and unity. EuroKids recognises the importance of introducing children to their cultural roots at a young age and acknowledges the role it plays in nurturing values and shaping their future. EuroKids believes in enhancing the holistic development of children by nurturing their physical, social, emotional, and cognitive development. Keeping this philosophy at its core, EuroKids organised a series of engaging activities to celebrate Navratri, allowing children to connect with their cultural heritage and enjoy the festival.
The activities included child-friendly Garba and Dandiya dance sessions, which featured age-appropriate music and vibrant decorations. Additionally, a lively photo booth with Navratri-themed props was set up to capture the joy of the children. Children were encouraged to attend school dressed in traditional Indian attire, such as chaniya cholis, kurtas, and dhotis, effectively showcasing the rich tapestry of our culture. Furthermore, a brief child-friendly Navratri puja and aarti session was conducted within the school premises, emphasising the spirit of unity and devotion that transcends cultural and regional boundaries. These activities collectively enriched children's understanding of Navratri and the values it represents.
Commenting on the celebrations, KVS Seshasai, CEO, Pre-K Division, Lighthouse Learning (EuroKids) said, “We believe in fostering the holistic development of children, which encompasses instilling a sense of cultural awareness and appreciation.

This festival holds a profound importance, imparting critical life lessons to our children, such as righteousness, morality, and empowerment. Through these meaningful celebrations, EuroKids remains dedicated to instilling these essential values in our future leaders."
