The journey at Creative Hut begins with Vidyarambham—a traditional ceremony that marks the start of learning. Rooted in India’s ancient Gurukul system, this moment is not just symbolic; it’s deeply personal. Each student steps into the Gurukul with a clear intention: to learn, live, and grow with purpose.

On this day, students offer their respects to knowledge, mentors, and the creative path ahead. It's not a formal lecture or a typical orientation. Instead, it’s a ritual of reflection—quiet, focused, and filled with meaning.

For many, this is the first time they experience education as a shared way of life. And for everyone, it becomes a moment they’ll always remember.

For every new batch, Onam is the first big celebration at Creative Hut—and one of the most unforgettable. Rooted in Kerala’s culture, it brings students together in color, tradition, and joy.

The entire campus gets involved. Students create intricate pookkalam designs with fresh flowers. They dress in traditional Kerala attire and welcome Maveli, the mythical king. Onam Sadhya is served on banana leaves with nearly 18 items—a shared feast prepared and enjoyed with enthusiasm.

Games, dances, songs, and even a playful tug-of-war fill the day with laughter. Many students experience Onam for the first time here, regardless of where they’re from. It becomes a moment of shared belonging—and marks the beginning of a new creative journey together.

Every year on August 15, the Creative Hut campus unites to celebrate India’s Independence Day with pride and respect. It’s a day when students from across the country stand together, honoring the freedom that allows them to dream, create, and express.

The ceremony begins with flag hoisting, followed by the national anthem and a short address. Students organize cultural performances that reflect India’s diversity—songs, poems, and skits that inspire both emotion and awareness.

This is more than just a formal occasion. It’s a reminder of values: freedom, unity, and responsibility. And for many students, it's the first time they see patriotism expressed through creativity.

Ganesh Chaturthi at Creative Hut is more than a ritual—it's a shared expression of devotion, unity, and creativity. Students from different faiths come together to welcome Lord Ganesha with music, light, and celebration.

The celebration begins with the installation of an eco-friendly Ganpati idol crafted by students. Daily aarti, songs, and traditional decorations turn the campus into a vibrant spiritual space. Everyone joins in—regardless of religion or background.

The visarjan procession is filled with energy, music, and joy. It's a moment of togetherness, where students sing, dance, and carry their creation to farewell. Ganesh Chaturthi becomes a lived lesson in culture, community, and shared respect.

Students prepare handmade rakhis, often tying them not just to friends, but also to classmates, mentors, and even equipment as a symbolic gesture of responsibility. The act becomes a creative expression of connection, beyond gender or background.

The day’s simplicity is what makes it special. With blessings, sweets, and heartfelt moments, Rakhi here reinforces the values of empathy, emotional safety, and mutual respect—foundations of life at the Gurukul.

Garba Festival at Creative Hut brings vibrant traditions to life—uniting students from every region in a swirl of rhythm, color, and cultural pride.

Beyond dance, it’s a lesson in cultural appreciation. Students not only perform but also explain the festival’s meaning—sharing heritage through movement, costume, and community spirit.

The celebration includes Malayalam songs, traditional Kerala attire, and regional delicacies. Students also showcase local art, language, and performances that reflect the spirit of the state.

Kerala Piravi becomes more than a cultural event—it becomes a way for all students to connect with the place that nurtures their creative journey. It’s a heartfelt salute to the host state that makes the Gurukul experience possible.

More than a meal, it’s an experience that builds self-reliance, problem-solving, and community. Cooking becomes another way to express creativity and nourish friendship.

Just behind the Creative Hut campus flows the peaceful Pannagam River—where students dive, swim, and splash together almost every day.

It’s a shared tradition, especially in the mornings and evenings, offering both fun and refreshment. The river isn’t too deep, and the activity is monitored for safety. Faculty ensure safety, and students are allowed only in front of the campus where mentors can watch.

We do not allow river activities during heavy rains. Still, on most days, this natural setting becomes a space for joy, bonding, and balance—a refreshing part of the Gurukul life.

Creative Hut is rooted in a village where tradition thrives. Students actively participate in festivals celebrated at nearby temples and churches—blending faith, culture, and visual learning.

From the grandeur of Thirunakkara, Ettumanoor, and Kidangoor temples to the vibrant celebrations at Thuruthipalli Temple and Holy Family Church (Mattakkara Palli) and Paduva Church, every visit becomes a rich cultural encounter. Elephants, chenda melam, kathakali, arattu processions—each event becomes a living storybook of Kerala’s traditions.

These experiences not only build respect for multiple faiths but also offer real-world opportunities to photograph, film, and reflect on India’s vibrant spiritual heritage.

Tours at Creative Hut are more than trips—they’re mobile classrooms. Almost every month, students venture out to explore new environments: wildlife sanctuaries, bird habitats, mountain landscapes, busy streets, and rural life.

Each destination is chosen with purpose—street photography, bird documentation, photojournalism, or landscape studies. These real-world experiences shape portfolios and sharpen observation.

While project deadlines and assignments may occasionally pause travel, students usually make the most of every chance. Tours turn travel into training, making the world part of the Gurukul.
