Dear Friends,
Another month has passed, and so, we bring you an update on our adventures of late.
Even though February was the shortest month, lots of events took place. Children had a sport meet in the school. Many of them participated. They also took part dance on their School Anniversary. February had been busy for all.
CHILD OF THE MONTH
Bibash Ghale, who is 15, is from the remote area of Gorkha District. At present, he is studying in grade 8. He stays quite as compared to others. His father died in a road accident when he was 10. After his father’s death, his mother got in to lots of problems; social, mental, and economic problems. So, his neighbors brought him to NECO in 2010.
Bibas is fond of sports. He especially loves playing football and enjoys running a marathon. At his school's 2nd Marathon he won the third prize. He also enjoys playing basketball and table tennis with his friends. Similarly, he loves to play out, watch action and horror movies, and read story books. He is also good at Taekwondo and in the way of getting a black belt. Messi inspires him and when he grows up he wants to be a football player. He never misses to see Messi's game.
KIDS SCHOOL's ANNIVERSARY
On February 25, the children’s School had an Anniversary. The school organized an event where cultural dance, drama, etc. were performed. Most of our children participated. We were very proud to see their performance.
GARDENING
Children love the garden that’s covered in green and with different flowers. In fact, they love gardening. Senior kids planted seasonal flowers and grass around the compound. New leaves and flowers can be seen on trees. In some years, some trees may provide seasonal fruits to the children.
