A colourful celebration of the children at the heart of Akanksha. The Pune team brought our walls to life with student portraits, artwork, photographs and creatively transformed furniture, a reminder of who we do this for, every single day.

Team Nagpur brought children and parents together to create vibrant murals and collaborative artworks, transforming school spaces and celebrating the art teachers who make these moments possible.

With three new Art teachers joining the team, 944 more children now have access to Akanksha’s Art curriculum. That means 944 more young people getting the chance to create, experiment and express themselves through art.

Bringing traditional art forms into the classroom, through the Paramparik Artists programme.
Around 400 children across Mumbai and Pune took part in 16 sessions, exploring Sanjhi, appliqué, Shola Pith, leather puppetry and bamboo art directly from practising artists.

BELIEVE. 💛

That is the feeling behind every match our students step onto the field or court.

Our students across Mumbai, Pune and Nagpur have been on the move, competing in Rugby, Football, Thai Boxing, Yoga, Sepak Takraw and Badminton.

They showed up in numbers too, with 107 State-level, 23 District-level and 12 National-level participations between May and August.

Along the way, they brought home Gold, Silver and Bronze medals, earned spots at upcoming State and National competitions, and gave us plenty of reasons to cheer from the sidelines.

A big cheer for all our student-athletes and Sports Teachers across the three cities. We’re only four months in, and there’s already so much to celebrate!
