🌟 What a brilliant first week for our Education Support Leaders, Yamuna and Sonam, during their two-week professional placement at CITC Sister School, St George’s Primary.
📚 They’ve spent time across a range of classrooms, observing high-quality practice in phonics, including how it is systematically implemented, as well as literacy, maths and whole-school approaches to behaviour and wellbeing. They also gained valuable insights into collaborative planning during PPA sessions.
🎭 Beyond the classroom, they shared a traditional Nepali dance with the school community at St George’s Church, which was warmly received.🇳🇵
🙏 A huge thank you to the staff at St George’s Primary for their generosity, hospitality and for sharing such excellent practice. Special appreciation to Headteacher Sally for her incredible dedication, continuing to coordinate activities despite breaking her foot!👩🦽➡️
We're excited for what next week will bring!💖

Great to catch up with Nick Hinton, Chair of the Britain-Nepal Non-Governmental Organisation Network (BRANNGO).🇳🇵
BRANNGO plays an important role in strengthening collaboration between NGOs working in Nepal, supporting more effective coordination, shared learning and the exchange of ideas and best practice across the sector.
Dawa, together with trustees Mike and Dave, enjoyed updating Nick on CITC’s current project work and discussing the value of being part of BRANNGO and the wider benefits of cross-organisational collaboration in supporting communities in Nepal.🙏 #BRANNGO #Collaboration #EducationNepal

Mike and Dawa came to see me today'
Gorgeous persons in a frame 🪟🙏🙏
Looking great guys
🙏 A wonderful meeting with Hengistbury Investment Partners, whose support of Classrooms in the Clouds continues to make a huge difference to children in rural Nepal.
🎉 The visit was made even more special when David Fairweather presented Dawa with an envelope containing £112.84 raised by his daughter, Poppy.
💖 Inspired by the work being done to improve access to education in Nepal, Poppy set up her own lemonade and brownie stand 🍋🧁and raised the money herself to help support children her own age on the other side of the world.
👏 We're incredibly grateful for Poppy's kindness, initiative and generosity. It's inspiring to see young people helping to create opportunities for their peers in Nepal.
🙏Thank you, Poppy, every pound helps us bring quality education closer to children in some of Nepal's most remote communities. 🏔️❤️ #KindnessInAction #YoungFundraiser #EducationNepal

🙏 Dawa was absolutely delighted to meet the members of the Latham & Watkins Litigation team to personally thank them for taking on the epic Chamonix Twin Peak Hiking Challenge.
🏔️ Climbing two peaks in two days, they pushed through incredible elevations and altitudes to raise over £13,600 to support better educational opportunities for children in rural Nepal.
✨Dawa was able to share updates on our current projects in the Solukhumbu, illustrating the profound impact this funding will deliver on the ground.
A massive thank you to the Latham and Watkins team and to all that supported them! ❤️ #Chamonix #TwoPeaks #EducationNepal
