Gaurav Juyal visited a primary school in Leh to teach students creative thinking exercises. He engaged all the students in explaining concepts, demonstrating techniques, and getting them to participate. The students were focused and their creative juices were flowing as they worked. Gaurav helped the students use their imagination to transform rocks into creative sculptures. Both the students and teachers were happy with the results of the session and how it inspired the students.
