  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  Our state is also known as the "Land of Festivals". We have 16 tribes in Nagaland and every tribe has its own language and costume. 2 hours away from Dimapur there is the capital Kohima where the famous "Battle of Kohima" was fought during world war 2 alongside the British against the Japanese.
  
  The hornbill festival is celebrated every year in the month of December. It is the biggest State cultural festival in India.
  
  Cultural exchange has pros both ways, while the workawayers help us preserve our culture, they learn to get immersed into the local culture and learn the rich art forms of dances, songs, crafts, and cooking local ethnic dishes. They get to mingle with the locals and experience their unique hospitality and friendly nature of the locals.
  
  Nagaland is in itself a unique mixture of tribes and cultures. The school is a mini Nagaland with all different tribes and customs of at least 15 cultures on a mini campus. it will be an interesting, rather exciting experience for any visitor. It also has a majority percent of underprivileged deprived children, it gives visitors the opportunity to teach, to help, and to reach out.
