We've already seen a lesson in Cambodia, now let's move to Nepal and discover what spiritual values pupils have there.
Not for all children the way for knowledge is easy. Some pupils go to
school from neighbouring villages for 1,5-2 hours. There are no buses,
children have to get over mountains, forests and follow the slippery
paths in any weather.
This school has 8 classes with 15-25 children in each class. Every
morning all pupils gather for the line-up in the school yard and sing
the national anthem of their mother land. And only then run joyfully to
classrooms.
Teachers are friendly and not strict at all. Pupils and teachers greet each other in English.
Practically all teachers are paid by the state. The primary education
is free, children go to school gladly and like English and maths lessons
most of all.
A classroom occupies a little room, windows are without glass and desks are wooden and old.
Chidren do their tasks then come up to a teacher and get a new one. The pure air and mountains around.
The literacy rate in Nepal is only 43%. Only one the most erudite pupil
from the 9th class will have the right to enter an institute. During
the last years the Nepal government changed its priorities to the
educational side.
Another Nepal school near the Annapurna peaks.
This village exists for the money from travel business and small
agriculture. It is pleasant to say that villagers have medical posts
with the whole list of medicines.
In senior classes places for legs are not enlarged.

The country of happiness.
