Japan Donates New Classroom Building to Jajarkot School

Jajarkot. A new classroom building constructed with the support of the Japanese government for Shree Bheri Triveni Secondary School in Jajarkot district was handed over on Wednesday through a formal program.

The building was handed over to the school in the presence of the Deputy Chief of Mission of the Japanese Embassy in Nepal, Shinto Yasuharu.

Under the Japanese government's Grassroots Human Security Projects (GGP), a grant assistance of 170,159 US dollars, equivalent to approximately 22.7 million Nepali rupees, was provided for the classroom reconstruction project of Shree Bheri Triveni Secondary School in Jajarkot district. At the building handover ceremony, Deputy Chief of Mission Shinto congratulated and thanked everyone involved in the project, expressing confidence that with the construction of the new building, students will now have the opportunity to learn in a safe and suitable educational environment.

Established in 1985, Shree Bheri Triveni Secondary School has been a major center of education for approximately 500 students from Jajarkot and its neighboring districts. The old building of the school was completely destroyed in the devastating earthquake that occurred in Kartik, 2080 BS.

This new 12-room building, constructed with the financial support of the Japanese government, is expected to significantly improve the learning environment for students and further strengthen the long-standing friendly relations between the peoples of Nepal and Japan.

This project was implemented through an organization called Volunteer Corps Nepal (VCN) under the GGP of the Japanese government. Established in 2018, this organization has been actively working in social-educational development, disaster relief, and volunteer activities across Nepal.
