A house, a crest, and a school for curious minds

On the northern rim of the valley, Langtang Hall runs on a house system, a Saturday programme and an expectation that every student ends up responsible for someone younger than they are.

The school

Roots and wings, in that order

Langtang Hall sits on the northern rim of the valley, where the road stops being a road. Eight hundred and ninety students, two hundred and forty of them boarding, arranged into six houses named after the rivers of the Langtang.

The house is the unit that matters. It is where a Grade 6 student is looked after by a Grade 11 one, where the Saturday programme is organised, and where — as every leaver will tell you at length — the cup is won or lost.

Saturdays and after

The Saturday programme

Twenty-three activities and nowhere to hide

From hill running to bookbinding to the school’s own beekeeping. Every student is in one for the whole year, and every activity presents at the Chaitra assembly.

The hill

A campus that runs uphill

The cross-country course climbs four hundred metres and is universally resented. The house that wins it has won the cup more often than not, which nobody thinks is a coincidence.

From the houses

She boarded from Grade 6 and I worried for a year. Her house captain wrote to us every fortnight. I have never had that from anyone else in her life.

The Saturday programme sounded like a filler. My son has kept bees for three years and is now the one training the Grade 6s.

What I use most from that school is running a house meeting at seventeen with forty people who did not agree with me.
