Playing games is always fun – and you don't even realise that you're practising your language skills pretty diligently at the same time! |
Silent Night 2010–2018 |
Christmas far from home ... we certainly didn't count on hearing Silent Night. And then ... we discovered that our volunteer Vicky had taught the children the song!
That was 2010.
Most of the children who are singing for us in this video are now in further education, or
vocational training.

without a shower |
There's no shower at the winter school ... but there is a river! Once a week both children and clothes are washed there instead. A different kind of luxury. |
Kids Talk 2/7 Norbu Tsering |
For a long time Norbu Tsering was the baby of the boarding school, spoiled by everyone. He's grown up a good deal now.

Letters |
The rooftop terrace of the "winter school" in Pokhara is abuzz: letters from Austria have arrived! The children of the project school in Jharkot have been corresponding with students at the Musisches Gymnasium in Salzburg for years. |

Fun in the courtyard of the winter school. Even if you're small: you just have to know how to help yourself ... |
Kids Talk 3/7: Pasang Mentok |
Pasang Mentok only came to us in the summer, joining the kindergarten class. It's amazing how much English she already has in her head.

Monsoon |
The monsoon has grown much stronger in the project's region. The clay roofs at the boarding school and village school leak every summer. Repairs are made here and there with a new layer of clay. What was once the exception has now been the rule for about 15 years.
But there's clearly no climate change, right, Mr. Trump?

Manakamana |
A trip to the temple of the wish-fulfilling Manakamana near Kristi, Pokhara. What wishes were made? |
Kids Talk 5/7: Pema Tsering |
Pema Tsering comes from Manang – a day's horseback ride away from the school. Just one reason why he wasn't able to join the school until he was 10 years old.

Kids Talk 6/7: Dolma Tsering |
Dolma Tsering, in the junior class, is 8 years old by our counting, not nine as she says. In Mustang though, children are "one" at birth.

Little Ngodup |
Ngodup is the young son of our project councelor, Mohan. He suffers from Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). This is a genetic, currently incurable disease in which the formation of new muscle tissue does not work.
We support little Ngodup and his family as much as possible. His parents allowed us to share this video. |

Sonam, Lhamo & Co / 4 mins English |
An insight into life in the village and children at the boarding school, recorded in 2010. There have been a number of changes since - there's a road, there are mobile phones. What remains is the lively atmosphere. And the living conditions are still very humble. |
Sonam, Lhamo & Co / 7.5 mins German |
We've added additional footage to this version of the video from the 2010, for those who have a little more time ...
The children from back then have grown up and moved on now and are now in further education, or out in the world, standing on their own two feet. Find out more in the Children's Archive >>
