Education
At Nyisal Hostel, education is more than academics—it is about giving children the knowledge and skills they need for a brighter future.
- Schooling at Janakalyan School: All children are enrolled at Shree Janakalyan Secondary School in Boudha, Kathmandu, where they study core subjects like English, Nepali, mathematics, science, and social studies.
- Extra Tuition: Since government schools often have limited resources, we provide extra tuition classes in the hostel to strengthen English, science, and other subjects.
- Tibetan Language & Culture: Children receive daily lessons in Tibetan language, prayers, and cultural traditions.
This helps them preserve their identity and stay connected with their roots while studying in the city.
- Life Skills & Vocational Training: Older students are encouraged to learn practical skills such as computer literacy, sewing and tailoring, handicrafts, and basic technical/engineering knowledge.
- Extracurricular Activities: Sports, music, art, and group activities are a regular part of hostel life, promoting creativity, teamwork, and confidence.
