Message from Principle

Time does not wait for man. It's always running. Society is progressive and keeps changing. The world is competitive. We cannot ignore change; it comes gradually in social, economic, religious, educational, cultural and moral aspects. Its impact may be positive or negative.

Development and change is not really satisfactory. Human behavior has changed from barbarism to civilized modernism and then on to the point of

Melamchi-Ghyang Secondary School is a public school located in the foothill of Langtang National Park, Nepal. It lies in Helambu VDC of Sindhupalchok district. Most of the people of this region are from the Hyolmo community. They are the Himalayan indigenous people of Nepal. The Hyolmo have poor living conditions; both remote and difficult to access, with little in the way of formal education system. To address this issue Melamchi Ghyang School was established in 1985. The school now has 250 students, 150 live in hostels attached to the school. Our catchment area is both broad and diverse. Some students come from Kathmandu for the education, which we offer. We employ 16 teachers; our classes range from Reception through to Year 11. Our students sit the School Leaving Certificate (SLC) at the end of Year 10.

Facilities

School Hostel

The hostels were conceived as a method of enabling students from outside this village to access the education, which we offer.

Library

The school firmly believes that a library is fundamental to the development of independent learners. Students can gain entertainment and knowledge by using the library's facilities. A library is taken to be the temple of goddess SARASWOTI

Laboratory

In the context of Science & Technology our school is showing slow and continuous progress. We have a fairly well resourced science laboratory.

Sport and Games

We believe and practice that the physical and mental development of the children is coupled and should progress together.
