HYDERABAD: The Premia Academy, known for its forward-thinking approach to education, continues to shape young minds with a strong foundation in empathy, awareness, and real-world readiness.  Premia recently hosted the Green Grocer Gala, a unique experiential event where its preschoolers transformed into little farmers and brought to life a vibrant, mini Rythu Bazaar on campus. With baskets full of fresh fruits and vegetables, the young Premia Cubs led the way in promoting healthy living, community values, and eco-friendly choices, all through hands-on learning.

Children arrived in adorable farmer outfits, straw hats, aprons, and baskets in hand, and transformed the campus into a buzzing, child-led marketplace. With great enthusiasm, they set up miniature stalls filled with farm-fresh fruits, vegetables, and leafy greens, all priced just like a Rythu Bazaar.

The Green Grocer Gala witnessed enthusiastic participation from parents, staff, and the wider school community, creating a warm and lively atmosphere. Laughter echoed through the stalls as children took the lead, showcasing their creativity, curiosity, and confidence. By stepping into the shoes of farmers and sellers, they learned where food comes from and how much effort goes into growing it.

What began as a simple school activity blossomed into a vibrant celebration of sustainability, learning, and real-world connections. From selling produce to engaging with visitors, the children experienced the joy of meaningful learning beyond textbooks. The event beautifully demonstrated how everyday moments can spark deep understanding. It brought together community, purpose, and play, the core values Premia Academy stands for.

Ms. Sindhuri Reddy, Founder and Managing Director of The Premia Academy, said, “We believe that real learning happens when children are immersed in experiences that reflect the world around them. The Green Grocer Gala was a beautiful example of how early exposure to real-life roles, in this case, as farmers and entrepreneurs, can nurture empathy, awareness, and essential life skills.”

Adding to this, Ms. Trupti Rao, Principal of The Premia Academy, added, “This initiative wasn’t just about healthy eating; it was about sowing the seeds of responsibility, sustainability, and respect for our food systems. When learning is joyful and meaningful, it stays with children for life. The initiative is a reflection of Premia Academy’s commitment to progressive, hands-on education, where classroom learning is extended into real-life applications — especially in the foundational years.”
