Mumbai, December 23, 2025: Over 680 children from across Mumbai, experienced
a special, fun-filled day at Hamleys WonderlandTM with entertainment as well as
learning, during Reliance Foundation’s annual Education and Sports for All (ESA) Day.
The children from government and government-aided schools, and from non-
governmental organisations are supported through various year-long initiatives by Reliance Foundation.
Ms Isha Ambani, Director, Reliance Foundation, who joined the children for ESA
Day, said “Reliance Foundation believes that when children have joyful experiences,
they aspire, build character and grow their potential. Our ESA programme combines
this philosophy with the joy of giving. For over 15 years, Reliance Foundation has been
organising festive celebrations for children from diverse backgrounds. This year, the
children also experienced Light Atelier at Hamleys Wonderland. It was amazing to see
the young children delight in learning through the exhibition, while playing with light
and shadows.”
At the Hamleys WonderlandTM carnival, in Jio World Garden, the children were thrilled
to experience the various attractions, including the Dino World, Elevator to the North
Pole, Giant Ferris Wheel, Carousel, Bumper Cars, Wonder Balloon, Wonder Boat, and
other engaging games.
The children also experienced this year’s new attraction – Light Atelier – presented by
the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre in collaboration with Dadu, the Children’s
Museum of Qatar. Light Atelier encourages children in the age group of 4 – 12 years
discover the magic of light, shadow, and colour through playful, hands-on exploration
in an immersive learning environment.
Reliance Foundation’s ESA programme seeks to make educational opportunities like
these, accessible to children from all backgrounds; an approach rooted deeply in
Reliance’s ‘We Care’ philosophy.
This special event in December, aims to enable children from diverse communities,
enjoy experiences that fuel their imagination and aspirations, and celebrate the spirit
of joy and giving.
