The students of a school here, who have been providing goats to the poor and needy students, have earned financial income by selling the goats found in the forest. The students of Karbakeli Basic School located in Modi Rural Municipality-4 Cang have picked and sold the saplings that were wasted in the forest.
Under the 'Learning and Earning Program', practical knowledge about agricultural production and its marketing has been given to the students under the practical classes of local subjects. A group of
students have also formed a creative children's club. The students belonging to the club cultivate seasonal and off-season crops in the plastic tunnels and vacant land built in the school. They have been collecting and selling Niuro, Lapsi, Tusa found in the forest.
Students have also been planting vegetables such as tomatoes, onions, ghiraula, radish, cabbage, cauliflower, and greens. "We sold the greens that we brought from the forest to the houses of the village. We also sold the tomatoes we planted in the school tunnel a few days ago, Nisma Sepurja, president of Creative Children's Club, said, "The income was 30,000 rupees. We bought ties, belts and ID cards for all the students of the school.' She said that agricultural products prepared by the school are delivered for sale in every fair held in the
village. Many people like the dishes like lapsi/radish pickle, gundrak etc. made by us. Sales are also good," she said.
Headmaster Dipendra Chapagai says that students are earning by studying and giving practical education in the program. He said that they are doing income-generating activities with the help of donors to keep students in the school. In
school, local curriculum is taught from class 1 onwards. He says that the originality, tradition and agriculture of the village are included in the curriculum. It is a village with majority of tribal community. The main income here is agriculture and animal husbandry', he said, 'We have started giving goats to two students, poor and Jehendar, since last year. We are confident that this campaign will prevent students from having to leave school for common household expenses.' During school time, students from small classes to senior classes are seen working in the fields in their school clothes.
Students are excited to get a home in agricultural work. Chhatra Livia Fagami, studying in class 8, received a goat last year. She said that the family was also happy after getting the goat. Parents were also very happy. You have to study well, daughter said', she said, now the goat has grown up. Now we will make more goats and sell them.
The parents say that the goat campaign is very good. They are hopeful that the economic situation will improve even if it is small. "The school has not only provided students with book knowledge but also helped their parents' financial situation," said Uma Tilija, a parent.
There are 73 students studying in the school, which runs from nursery A and B to class 8. The school said that the younger students were taught to plant flowers in the flower garden, while the older students were taught to grow vegetables.
CCTV has been installed for the safety of the school and students. Students are made to study through smart boards. The school also has a computer lab. The teachers of the school have also been financially supporting the children's club of the students on their birthdays.
