This place is located on the slope of a
beautiful mountain of Garhwal and surrounded by
agricultural fields. It takes 1½ hours drive
from Dangchaura on a difficult mountain track to
reach there. The route to this School is full of
Temples dedicated to different Deities. This is
really a calm, cool and divine place. The
climate of this area is very healthy.
The School is situated in the middle of terrace
fields. The village is composed of sparse houses
between the fields. This School was set up by
some energetic and educated people of
Jakhi-Gavana to provide Basic Education to the
children of the village and nearby areas.
Children are coming from 4 villages, in a radius
of 2 km, on foot. In this School they are
morally and spiritually trained besides their
curriculum. The Management and Teaching Staff of
the school is very sincere and dedicated.
