Animation is a combination of imagination, creativity, thoughts, colours and stories. Our generation has grown up watching all the famous animated characters on screen and have adored them. These characters made our childhood memorable, all thanks to the animators behind the superb animations.

Not only focusing on academics, but also on enhancing other life-skills of each child for their holistic development, the organisation, under the banner of Allen Animation conducts animation classes.
