Our success will depend not on new building and resources, but on quality of teaching that we provide. We want this to be the very best.

MORNING ASSEMBLY
This is the most important event of the day and takes place in an informal setting. We share stories and ideas, sing and pray together (in Nepali) before starting the day's work.

ENGLISH
Under the Academic Director and Principal's direction, children learn to speak good English, to write it fluently and correctly and to read it with pleasure and understanding. Many of the lessons consists of creative writing, listening to stories, drama and discussion, as well as traditional exercises.

NEPALI
Our students must develop a love and respect for Nepali language, literature and culture. They must learn to write perfect Nepali as well as speak it. They develop their language skills through writing, debates, poetry and stories as well as grammar exercises.

SCIENCE
We want our students to adopt real scientific methods: to observe, experiment, analyze and evaluate data. They must examine the natural environment, study the human body and learn about physical and chemical processes. The information comes from the textbook, but the understanding comes from practical activities.

SOCIAL STUDIES
They go to study Nepal's history, its present condition and its future prospects. They look at the world beyond, other countries, religions, political systems and physical environments. We eventually want our students develop a strong sense of responsibility for Nepal's welfare and development.

MATHEMATICS
Maths require careful and systematic teaching. Children learn how to use these in practical situations-weighing and measuring, estimating, analyzing scientific data, designing patterns, etc.

COMPUTING
This generation students will do much of their studies and research on the Internet and most of their project work/essays and exams on the computer. All our students learn basic computer skills including programming in our well equipped computer lab.

ARTS
Art is not an optional extra:it's an essential part of our curriculum. It can range from precise drawing of plants in our garden to pottery and puppetry and exploring new ways to use colors in abstract designs. We are planning an Art Department which should be the best in Nepal.

MUSIC, DANCE AND DRAMA
Another essential part of the curriculum involving body control, voice training, close teamwork and a lot of fun. Some of this will take place in the Assembly Hall. But we are also planning an Amplitheature for outdoor performances.

MEDTATION/YOGA
It is the power of total inner and outer development and helps students to develop the habits of balance and concentration. A modified version of Meditation and Yoga is taught to interested students.

PROJECT WORK
Students are given independent project works. They have to go out to study different communities in order to complete the project and present it to their friends. Junior students will have to do simple projects suited to their age.

EXTRA CURRICULUM ACTIVITIES
Srudents participate in indoor and outdoor games such as basketball, table-tennis, chess, football, cricket and teakwondo. Promising players are given special training and oppertunities for participating in tournaments. Students can also take part in other cultural and educational activities. Besides, frequent excursions are organized for students to visit places of archaeological and historical interest in and around Kathmandu.
