Kathmandu, Mar. 16: Shree Shiwalaya
Lower Secondary School in Laharepauwa of Rasuwa district has been reconstructed
with the support from Indigo Children’s Fund UK and Jagriti Child and Youth
Concern Nepal (JCYCN).
The school building collapsed in the
devastating earthquakes in 2015.
“The four-room building was constructed
at the cost of Rs. 41,87,500 with due adherence to the quake resistant building
practices and guidelines,” said the JCYCN in a press statement.
District education officer of Rasuwa
Sukadev Sapkota and Chair of Children as Zones of Peace (CZP) National Campaign
and president of JCYCN Tilotam Paudel jointly inaugurated the building amidst a
ceremony on Wednesday.
The building has been handed over to the
School Management Committee on the same day.
On the occasion, president of CZP
Krishna Subedi announced scholarship worth Rs. 50,000 for the needy students of
the school.
He said, “Teachers have pivotal role in
uplifting the school and they should be committed to the quality education.
Likewise, no children should either be used in any political activity or
conflicts. They are harbinger of our society.”
