The school was established in the year 1989, with a hostel of 15 small rooms for both the sexes, on a big plot of land gifted by the late king Birendra Bir Bikram Shah Dev, with 60 children and a temporary shanty serving as a class rooms. With gradual financial supports from the individual donors and aid associations abroad, we managed to construct, expand and improve the quality of school class-rooms, children’s home, school dispensary, a community kitchen and administrative block.
