Nagarathna loves to show her little artistic creations to her teachers. She proudly takes her drawings of apples to her ‘Aunty’ with a big smile on her face.
Nagarathna’s first few days at the Diya Ghar centre was not easy. As a one-year-old baby, she was taken to the construction sites where her parents worked as labourers. She played with dangerous sharp tools and was surrounded by piles of dust which made her cough.
But today, this little girl has discovered the joy of learning at Diya Ghar. She loves her Montessori activities, pouring dry beans from one container to another. She is also eager to do the wooden puzzles.
We don’t know if Nagarathna will become a famous artist someday. But we do know that she is a child who deserves a safe environment to explore and grow.
