About Astral Preschool
Nurturing Young Minds Through Purposeful Learning
Astral Preschool located in Nashik, Maharashtra, is built on a simple promise which is to give children a strong foundation for life. Established in 2018 the preschool was created with one clear belief: children should love coming to school, not feel afraid of it.
Founded by the exemplary Suchita Rajguru and Ruby Merchant, both hailing from the education field, Astral began with a shared understanding that the foundational years are not just about learning letters and numbers but also about building confidence, curiosity, values, emotional strength, communication and a love for learning. With this vision they created a school that provides a safe space for children for self-expression.
Here, we see the whole child. Our greatest wish is that every child loves walking through our gates, feeling safe, excited, and eager for the day ahead.
We believe in a gentle pace. Children aren't rushed; they are listened to, guided with patience, and encouraged to express themselves freely. Alongside a strong academic foundation, we tend to the heart, weaving kindness, empathy, and respect into the fabric of every day. Our goal is to nurture not just capable students, but good, confident human beings.
This is more than an education, it is the beginning of your child’s story and we would be honoured to be a part of it.
Our Mission
Where Every Child Shines
