Mission Statement for Community Service. 1997

Community service
Community Service is a strong component of the school and students are required to participate in age appropriate community service activities. As part of its institutional philosophy, the school has always provided opportunities for the students to work for the good of the community to ensure that student become socially committed, pro-active, concerned citizens. The students begin by helping in the Dining Room in grades I and II. They clean the grounds in Grade V. As they get older the Community Service activities get more complex. In grade VIII, they teach English in neighborhood schools. At A-levels, there is a requirement that students commit 100 hours in year one, and 40 in year two.

Examples of some of the community service at A Level activities are as follows:
  • Teaching in schools around the community,
  • Coaching high school students of local schools, going to village schools and working for extended periods of time, holding classes for out of school economically disadvantaged students,
  • Helping to establish community libraries in villages and working with street children.
  • Hospital Service: RBS students volunteer in hospitals in Kathmandu where they work in the general wards, the physiotherapy department, at the reception, as well as in the in-patient department.
  • Housing and Infrastructure Development Programme:A Level students help build low-cost houses in surrounding villages.
  • Working in flood affected areas (Sunsari)
  • Working in Old People’s Homes
  • With children of inmates
  • Special Needs Children
  • Working with Street Children and Child Workers

In addition to these, students make their own community service plans to suit their interest and timing.
