A school trip to Vaksana Farms isn’t just a day out it’s a hands-on learning lab where curiosity, teamwork, and nature take center stage. From farm-to-plate experiences to calm reflective moments under banyan shade, both students and teachers return refreshed, wiser, and proud. Here’s how your school can make the most of it and get recognized for doing learning differently.
Why Vaksana Works for Schools
Experience over rote: Kids see how food grows, how animals are cared for, and how ecosystems work, live, not from a textbook.
Safe, hosted, structured: Age-wise activities with trained hosts, clean rest spaces, and clear supervision plans.
Curriculum-friendly: Natural links to EVS, Science, Social Science, Language, Art, PE, and Life Skills.
A Day in the Life: Students’ Joy & Learning
1) Farm-to-Food Trail
Students harvest seasonal veggies, learn about soil health, composting, and irrigation, then taste a simple farm-fresh snack. They discover cycles seed to plate and appreciate farmers’ work.
2) Animal & Bird Encounters
Guided walks introduce ducks, turkeys, guinea fowl, chickens, and friendly farm animals. Kids learn about species, habitats, and humane care, while practicing empathy and observation.
3) Nature Games & Team Challenges
Treasure hunts, sensory walks, rope-ring relays, and soil/leaf ID challenges turn learning into play. Outcomes: teamwork, communication, problem-solving.
4) Water & Wellness (Season-Ready)
In monsoon-friendly months, kids experience pond ecology discussions and safe, supervised water-side activities. They learn how rains recharge groundwater and why conservation matters.
5) Art, Story & Reflection
Leaf rubbings, nature journaling, quick poems, and storytelling circles help students process what they saw. Teachers love the quiet, mindful close to an energetic day.
