Description
Namsate and welcome to our school !!
We are a community based public school located in nuwakot district , nested in the Shivapuri hills . For decades, our school has been the heart of this rural community, providing education to local children from childhood up to Grade 12 .
As a rural public school our students do not often get the chance to interact with the world outside our valley. We joined Workaway because we want to bring the world to our classrooms. Our main goal is to give our students global explore, build their confidence in speaking English and introduce them to new ways of learning.
When you come to volunteer with us, you are not just visiting a school,you are being welcomed into a deeply knit community. You will be embraced by our dedicated team of 15 local teachers, enthusiastic students who are eager to learn, and welcoming villagers who are always excited to share a warm cup of Nepali tea and a plate of fresh Dal Bhat with you.
We are located in a true paradise for nature lovers. We are situated right in the lap of nature , away from the dust and noise of the city. On clear days you can see majestic Himalayan mountain range from our schoolyard.
It takes 1 hour drive to reach us from Kathmandu ring road (Samakhushi) which is 22 km.
If you are passionate about education , want to experience Nepal's rural life style this is the perfect place for you. -
