JAISITHOK SCHOOL

We are so immensely grateful to everyone who has donated this year to the Jaisithok School, built in Gulmi, Nepal in 2019. A total of 103 students are being educated there across Primary levels. The money raised covers building maintenance costs, training teachers and development resources. The amount collected will ensure funding for the school until 2025.

SHREE JAGDISHWOR SCHOOL

After setting up the Dubai College Foundation at the IHC in 2019, and the subsequent successes of building Jaisithok School in Gulmi, it has been amazing to travel back to Nepal to initiate the next Dubai College charity project.

The Shree Jagdishwor School (SJS) in Bimal Nagar is in desperate need of reparation. Situated on the main Kathmandu-Pokhara Highway, this primary school has requested support from local government and NGOS for more than 10 years, and has been overlooked. There are 123 students (69 girls and 54 boys), and 12 teachers. 10 teachers are funded by the local government and 2 by the community.

The existing two storey building has four dark, damp rooms but the focal concern is a crumbly brick staircase. The building is more than 25 years old and simply isn't earthquake-proof. The Dubai College Foundation project with Pahar Trust Nepal aims to demolish this building and replace it with a six room, twostorey building.

Building is likely to commence in October after the monsoon season, and will take up to 9 months. The estimated costs for this project are $67,000, roughly AED250,000
