Ngayur Sangacholing School

The Ngayur Sangacholing School in Payung village only 45 minutes walk from Kalimpong requested funding from the Juniper Trust to build an additional classroom in their expanding School. This school is run by local monks and owned by the Ringpoche Ngawang Hochok. The school is ambitious and hopes eventually to have up to 32 classrooms to cater for the growing number of pupils wishing to attend. The Juniper Trust has donated £1000 for the construction of one classroom.

Students from King Edward VI Five Ways School in Birmingham England just returned from a KE School Trip to the Singalila Ridge in India. During their adventure, the group visited the school construction project at Kalimpong an important bazaar town for traders from Sikkim, Bhutan, Tibet and the plains of Bengal. The students got out paintbrushes to add finishing touches to the newly built classrooms and help clear the ground for the foundations of the main school building. The British students had quite an experience meeting and working along side the local children of Kalimpong.

We are waiting for a request for funds to complete the project.
