Thank You Bournvita!

परीक्षा के अंक छोड़िए और सीखने पर जोर दीजिए।

Marks chodhiye aur seekhne par zor dijiye.

Don’t focus on the marks, focus on real learning.

Bournvita showed us that change can be an opportunity to improve and innovate.

Real learning is not about memorizing facts and figures in a classroom, but about understanding the concepts and applying them in real life. Real learning is not about following the crowd, but about exploring, questioning, and experimenting. Real learning is not about being complacent, but about being curious and adaptable.

Change is inevitable, and sometimes it can be hard to accept. We may feel comfortable with the way things are and resist the need to adapt to new situations. But if we want to grow and succeed, we have to embrace change and learn from it.

Take the example of Bournvita, one of the oldest and most popular brands in the malted beverages segment. Bournvita by Cadbury, a subsidiary of Mondelēz International was launched in 1948 and marketed as a health drink that provides nutrition and energy for children. For decades, it enjoyed a loyal customer base and a strong reputation.

But times changed, and so did the expectations and preferences of the consumers. In April 2023, a social media influencer called out Bournvita for having high sugar content and questioned its claim of being a health drink. This sparked a debate and a backlash among the public, who demanded more transparency and accountability from the brand.

Bournvita did not shy away from the challenge. Instead, it took the feedback seriously and decided to change its product formulation. 8 months after the controversy, it reduced the sugar content by 14.4%. It also changed its packaging and communication to reflect its new positioning as a wholesome and balanced drink.

So, let’s learn from Bournvita and embrace change with a learning mindset. Let’s not be afraid to try new things, learn new skills, rethink our learning spaces, and discover new possibilities. We must question our current assumptions for learning in a classroom and listen to what students want and expect from their educational environments.
Exploring pedagogical research and understanding human behavior can be crucial in our quest for better learning environments. By delving deep into these areas, we can uncover valuable insights that can help us create more effective and engaging educational experiences.

Let’s not settle for the status quo, but strive for excellence and innovation in our lessons, teaching methods, classroom designs, corridors, and school open spaces. Let’s shift our focus from marks to creating environments that foster real learning and rekindle students’ passion for education once again.

Who do you think the most successful people are? Those who earn good marks, or those who are more passionate about their work? It’s high time to support this kind of learning.

Hi, I’m Mr. Selvaraj, Principal of ACT Secondary School. After hearing about CIVOM, we decided to set up a library in our school. We approached CIVOM and their team, who came to meet with me. The first meeting went very well; they explained clearly how they would set up the library, including the different models, designs, and materials for furniture and racks. It took them about two months to manufacture the materials and furniture. Once everything was ready, they came to our school, identified the room for the setup, and completed the entire project in just 4-5 days. They took care of everything—flooring, materials, furniture, and the complete interior. The results were fantastic. On the first day back, the students immediately fell in love with the library. They were drawn to the welcoming environment, the new furniture, and the overall positive atmosphere. This new library has created a wonderful space that motivates and energizes the students to engage with books. I highly recommend CIVOM to other schools for setting up their libraries. Thank you.

CIVOM has done an outstanding job, and what we appreciate most is their willingness to understand our specific needs. They offer flexible solutions rather than sticking to a fixed style.
The Beaumont concept they introduced is modern and open, which suits our vision for a classroom environment. The furniture is not only child-friendly but also supports teachers in their work. The children love moving the furniture to create their own spaces, which enhances their learning experience.
We are very happy with the results and plan to continue working with CIVOM to explore similar solutions for older students.

I’m Poonam Saini, Principal of GD Goenka Public School in Indore. Our school’s vision is to provide value-based education with innovation and creativity. To support this vision, it was crucial to set up a library that helps shape our students' character and instill a love for reading.
In today’s technology-driven world, attracting children to read can be challenging. We needed a library that was modern, functional, and aesthetically pleasing. That’s when we found CIVOM, based in Indore, working with Raeco from Australia. They understood our vision and our passion for encouraging reading among students.
Thanks to CIVOM, our library has become a favorite spot for the children. It’s user-friendly and beautifully designed, helping us achieve our goal of fostering a love for reading. Thank you, CIVOM, for creating such an amazing library for us.

I’m delighted to share that the Vikram Sarabhai Library has been successfully restored and reopened. This significant project modernized the library while respecting its legacy, blending traditional elements with contemporary design to meet the needs of today’s learners.
CIVOM played a crucial role in this upgrade, providing bright, flexible furniture and enhancing the library’s overall ambience. Their team helped us design functional spaces, including new shelves and technology areas, that have been well-received by users.
The library’s daily visits have increased, reflecting the success of our partnership with CIVOM. We’re very satisfied with the results and appreciate their excellent work. Thank you, CIVOM!

CIVOM has set up several state-of-the-art laboratories on the campus of Parul University. Among the most notable are the Medical Library at the Parul Institute of Medical Sciences and Research and our library for the BBA college. If you visit these libraries, you'll see some of the finest facilities in university education.
In addition to the libraries, CIVOM has also established admission cell offices and faculty offices for us. The feedback from parents, students, and teachers has been overwhelmingly positive. Everyone is very satisfied with the work done by CIVOM. The promoters of CIVOM have a fantastic sense of aesthetics, and the comfort and quality of their infrastructure are remarkable.
Given our satisfaction with this project, we have also entrusted CIVOM with the establishment of our Homeopathy and Ayurveda libraries, which will be coming up soon. Additionally, they will be setting up various faculty offices on our university premises.

Bangalore International Kids High School is fortunate to have partnered with CIVOM. We appreciate their approach to furnishing our library, language lab, and computer lab. Their furniture is lightweight and comes in soothing colors, making it easy for children to arrange as they like. The setup is informal, allowing students to move the furniture according to their preferences, which enhances their enjoyment of the library. Additionally, the comfortable furniture in the labs ensures that both students and staff can work and teach comfortably throughout the day. We are very pleased with the quality of the furniture, especially the pieces designed for younger children. We are happy to have chosen such a great company to furnish our library and labs and look forward to continuing our association with them in the future.
