A Journey with Agastya Naturals in the NEST Room

• Our journey of Agastya Naturals in the NEST room
  began with a simple inspiration whatever we do
  within the campus should be sustainable. This
  philosophy guided us to advise the children to
  preserve and reuse everything possible.
• As I walk into the NEST room, I'm greeted by the
  lively atmosphere that reflects our wonderful
  journey with the children. Once, we stumbled upon
  some curtains and decided to paint them
  ourselves, giving the room a creative personal
  touch. Every piece of furniture here, especially
  the wooden racks, holds special memories of us
  upcycling wood and working together to create
  something beautiful.

Agastya Naturals in the NEST Room

• The heart of our school is the NEST curriculum,
  encompassing Natural farming, Eating mindfully,
  Sustainable living, and a Tribute to Earth.
  Agastya Naturals effortlessly integrates into the
  sustainable living and Tribute to Earth
  components. NEST classes are for all students
  from grade 3 to 12.
• The NEST room is always open. And children, after
  completing their classwork or tests, inform their
  teachers and come to the NEST room to work on
  something or join ongoing projects. The absence
  of rigid rules creates an environment where
  everyone works together, irrespective of grade or
  age.

The Creative Chaos

• From the dishwashing soap we use for cleaning to
  bio-enzymes that serve multiple purposes,
  including floor cleaning, bathroom cleaning, and
  even washing clothes for our youngest learners in
  kindergarten we've created a diverse collection
  of products.

Imperfection in Creation

• Whether it's crafting diyas or working with cow
  dung, we value their interest in trying things on
  their own over unrealistic standards of
  perfection.
• We've witnessed a remarkable transformation, from
  children hesitant to touch cow dung to them now
  comfortably working with both wet and dry
  varieties. To encourage participation, we lead by
  example. If we want a child to handle cow dung
  for a project, we are the first to do it. This
  approach ensures a natural progression as
  children tend to follow suit. Traditional
  teaching methods simply cannot match.
