Artists led a three-day art workshop at Krishna Avanti Croydon, creating dramatic figures representing the six Avanti virtues - integrity, courage, self-discipline, empathy, gratitude and respect. Children, from Year 1 to Year 6,were involved in making the 4ft sculptures out of wood, paper and willow. The idea of connecting the figures with the values was suggested by the school’s Y6 Virtues Ambassadors, Head Boy and Head Girl. Even better, a seventh sculpture was created to encompass all of the virtues in one!The figures were then painted and hung as a 3D mobile art installation in a school stairwell as a daily reminder to all about living and showcasing these virtues on a daily basis. We think they look fantastic! Great work, Krishna Avanti!#AvantiVirtues #CreativeCharacter #KrishnaAvantiCroydon #ArtWithPurpose #VirtuesInAction #StudentLeadership ... See MoreSee Less

This powerful piece highlights the spirit of service and community that we strive to foster at Avanti Schools.A special thank you to Dhruv, Aniruddh, and Dev (all from 9 Earth) for their help in loading the food donations, your efforts did not go unnoticed! We are also incredibly proud of Joshua (10 Fire) & Jayden (9 Earth), who took the initiative to not only lead this collection but also volunteer in Harrow & Pinner, distributing food to those in need. Their experience was a touching reminder that service is not just about giving, it’s about spreading kindness, love, and hope. 💛As we head into the Easter break, we encourage everyone to continue finding ways to serve and uplift others. Wishing you all a restful and joyful holiday! 🐣✨#AvantiHouse #Gratitude #EmpoweringYoungMinds #GiveBack #CommunitySpirit #FoodDrive ... See MoreSee Less

Avanti celebrates Ram Navami! Rama Navami celebrates the appearance day of Lord Rama, an incarnation of Krishna who ruled the Earth as the ideal king in Treta-yuga, many millennia ago. Lord Rama's pastimes, including His marriage to Sita, their exile in the forest, and the subduing of the evil demon Ravana, are retold by the sage Valmiki in the epic Ramayana.
