Himal Ma Vi, Hedangna Golechaur 3, Rural Municipality Makalu
On
dated 28th Magh, 2074, Continuous 3 hours of walking from Bakle, we reached
Himal Ma Vi, Hedangna Golechaur at 3 PM with my team. Students were about to
return home from school because of class 10 test examination. We observed school’s territory, buildings,
sanitation and playground which are wonderful. We stayed near the school of
Yamphu Rai’s house. Another day we visited early before assembly, we saw
different types of assembly there such as they do attendance (Presents) of
students at the assembly time which were new for us.
We
introduced ourselves and had discussed with teachers about our survey/research
and purpose of visiting schools. Then we went to the office and introduced each
other briefed out the background of our organization. We visited computer lab there were 5
desktops, colour printers, photocopy machine and 2 laptops in lab room. There
are also facilities of the science lab and library too. But unmanaged and lack
of habit of study couldn’t light up the face of library room. We found water
tape and friendly toilet over there but not well maintain and proper use of it.
Head
sir coordinated with us very friendly manner, he did very well execution to run
school in the present state. He shared his story to bring the school in this
stage. He did the movement with the support of students to achieved local
budget for the sake of school. He has reciprocal relationship with SMC
president and staffs of school. I did
not see good management of an office and ledger (files). They are taking much
time to providing respective files or documents at that moment. They are
keeping files and documents haphazardly, also they are not hanging and
posting/sticking calendar, schedule, routine, informative poster, notice board etc.
proper way. They posted some pamphlet messy and improperly. Somehow Head sir
and community doing best for their school's quality of education and physical
assets. They are hiring math teacher from Terai region that is also good
initiation of School.
We
asked about resources of school but nothing at all behind their donated amount.
I am pleased to know that they are handling that amount very properly and
managing some sort of training or activities from interest money. They give
credit amount within teaching staffs with the authority of SMC president in the
rate of 18% interest and deduct by her/his salary.
Overall,
community people are aware about educating their children but due to household
works they did not get enough time to study at home. I saw very poor government
initiation toward education sector, we visited many schools but government
providing only girls scholarship within many others optional scholarship. Most
of the visited schools were constructed and funded by other organizations.
There are no sufficient teachers and budget to run school according to school
head.
