Stepping beyond the classroom, our Junior School students embarked on an enriching educational journey to Bhaktapur Durbar Square, immersing themselves in the cultural and architectural marvels of one of Nepal’s most treasured heritage sites.

As they wandered through Nyatapol and Dattatreya Squares, they encountered centuries-old temples, intricate wood carvings, and traditional courtyards that have stood as symbols of Nepalese craftsmanship and devotion. Their visit to Pottery Square offered a hands-on glimpse into the artistry of local potters, where they observed the meticulous process of shaping clay into beautifully crafted pottery – a skill passed down through generations.

Beyond simply observing, students engaged in meaningful discussions about history, culture, and the importance of heritage conservation. This immersive experience allowed them to connect with their lessons in a tangible way, fostering a deeper appreciation for Nepal’s rich legacy.

A truly inspiring day of learning, this field visit encouraged curiosity, reflection, and a sense of pride in our shared history – reinforcing that some of the most valuable lessons happen outside the four walls of a classroom.
