Message From The Director:
KUHS is a true example of partnership with staff, students, parents, the Board of Management and Kathmandu University striving together to provide the best possible education for the future leaders in Nepal. Working with the Government the school follows the Nepalese curriculum and Cambridge 'A' levels to equip students to embrace their own culture and provide them with the necessary skills to apply for a place in the university of their choice.
Situated on a hilltop between the towns of Dhulikhel and Panauti, there is a sense of light and space that assists the mind in becoming tranquil and focused on learning. All around are wooded hills that descend to deep valleys suited in the monsoon season to the cultivation of rice. Beyond lies that vast panorama of the Himalaya.
KUHS was set up to provide a high quality education in an environment ideal for learning. The founding Principal, Aidan Warlow, brought many touches of imagination to the infrastructure of the school and also to the curriculum. Ian Raitt, the previous director built on this and I am looking forward to leading the school in its next stage of development.
The extra curricular activities reflect the opportunities for adventure in Nepal and the art and culture of Nepalese society. Sporting activities encourage team work and individual wellbeing. The involvement in projects to conserve the environment and help with local schools develop the students into members of society who will make a significant contribution in Nepal in the years to come. Links with schools and organisation outside Nepal encourage a wider understanding of the diversity of our global village.
The future is bright and I am privileged to be part of it.
