Beloved chairman ,staff along with Students from Grades 6 to 10 of Laksh International School, Kisannagar had a truly enriching experience at the Hyderabad Literary Festival (HLF) 2026, held from January 24–26 at Sattva Knowledge City in HITEC City, Hyderabad. This annual celebration of books, ideas, culture, and creativity provided our young learners with a remarkable opportunity to expand their horizons beyond the classroom.

HLF celebrates literature, art, culture, poetry, storytelling, and meaningful conversations that inspire people of all ages.

🎭 Experienced cultural performances and workshops, encouraging creativity, confidence, and expression among young minds.
🌍 Broadening Worldviews
The festival’s inclusive programming — featuring voices from diverse languages, backgrounds, and artistic traditions — helped students appreciate not just books and writing, but the world’s cultural richness. From poetry recitations to creative workshops, each moment was a step toward nurturing critical thinking, empathy, and lifelong learning.
Many of our learners expressed how meeting authors and creators boosted their confidence and inspired them to think deeper about their role in writing, storytelling, and even community and environmental stewardship.
