Who We Are

Welcome to The Paper Clay, an Early Life Skill Centre nestled in Thrissur and Kunnamkulam, Kerala. We’re part of Eqlyze Educational Initiative Pvt. Ltd.—driven by a vision to cultivate compassionate, confident, and capable children through Social-Emotional Learning (SEL).

How We Teach:

At Paperclay, we nurture each child through a balance of emotional guidance, hands-on learning, and playful exploration. Children are encouraged to understand their feelings, stay curious, and grow through interactive activities, movement, and creativity. We focus on building values like kindness and respect, while working closely with parents to support every child’s journey.

My daughter Athena is studying in LKG at this play school. We are very happy with the school. The teachers are very caring, friendly, and patient with the children. The staff are also very supportive and approachable. My daughter has learned many good things like discipline, sharing, and basic studies.

This is one of the best play schools in Thrissur. We feel very comfortable and confident with the school. Without any doubt, we plan to admit our second child here too. Thank you to all the teachers for taking such good care of the kids.

We absolutely love Paper Clay. It’s not just another activity centre—it’s a nurturing space where children learn to recognise emotions and feel secure expressing themselves. The facilitators are extremely kind, patient, and genuinely connected with the kids.
