Children of Nepal |
Children of Nepal was established in 1996 in association with
The Rudolf Steiner Foundation, now known as RSF Social Finance.
Its first project was to create a kindergarten in a children's
home in Kathmandu. For three years, CON trained the staff in
teaching and management skills. In 1999, the project was handed
over to the kindergarten's Nepalese staff. In 2000, CON helped
to establish Tashi Waldorf School in an area on the outskirts of
Kathmandu. As of May 2007, there are 120 children attending the
school in a nursery, three kindergartens and classes 1 through
3. We generally always need classroom materials used in
Waldorf schools, such as watercolour paint, pencils, block
crayons, stick crayons, and beeswax, that are not available in
Nepal. |
