A house, a crest, and a school for curious minds
At the northern foothills of the Kathmandu valley, Langtang Hall runs on an active house system, outdoor leadership programs, and an expectation that every student grows into a responsible leader.

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.
The house systemSix houses, mixed across all year groups, with senior students responsible for juniors.
The Saturday programmeTwenty-three activities, every student in one, all year.
Day and boarding togetherBoarders and day students share houses, duties and the same Saturday.

Beyond the classroom
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.
See school lifeThe 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.
Valued voices
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.
