Think about the last time you learned something new. Maybe when you cooked a dish, tried a dance step, or figured out a new app on your device. You probably didn’t just read the instructions. You watched, listened, touched, moved, or even spoke the steps out loud. You used more than one of your five senses.

This is called multisensory learning. Our brains are wired to learn this way. Different senses are first processed in different brain areas: sight in the visual cortex, sound in the auditory cortex, and touch in the somatosensory cortex. These signals are then combined in networks across the brain and are finally brought into the prefrontal cortex, which helps us focus, remember, make decisions, and regulate emotions. When children learn with many senses at once, the brain builds stronger and long lasting connections. They do not just memorize; they truly understand. That is why we remember the smell of a childhood kitchen or recall tables we once chanted aloud. Learning becomes an experience that sticks.

At The Navriti School, we bring these insights to life through our model of Precision Schooling. Built on five pillars: physical and sensorimotor growth analytics, cognitive blueprint and neurolearning matrix, multidimensional root cause mapping and the emotional wellness and joy index.

Our Sensory and Kitchen Garden let children dig in soil, smell herbs, and taste what they grow with their own hands. In the Brain Plasticity Lab, their focus, memory, and flexibility are sharpened with engaging activities. In The Imaginarium, they dive into pretend play, for example, running a marketplace, managing a bank, or building a town from scratch. Through play, they practice decision making, problem solving, and teamwork while letting their imagination lead.

At Navriti, learning is never a burden. It is the discovery of joy, and growth. When children engage all their senses, they gain knowledge with confidence, nurture their creativity, and develop a love for learning that lasts a lifetime.
