Old students remember
What the schoolgave them
Our maths teacher set one extra problem every day, Fridays included. I teach engineering now, and my students get the same treatment.
Rajan ShresthaOld student · lecturer in civil engineering
I was shy until Grade 8, when they put me on the debate team anyway. That one decision changed everything that came after.
Prakriti AdhikariOld student · lawyer
The library was small, but the librarian always kept the new Madhupark aside for me. I became a journalist because of that shelf.
Bikash RaiOld student · journalist
Inter-house football on a dusty ground, cheering until we lost our voices. I have been to big stadiums since, and none felt like that.
Sujan GurungOld student · army officer
When my father was ill, the school let us pay the fees late and never said a word about it in front of anyone. I have not forgotten.
Nirmala KCOld student · staff nurse
I came back to teach here. Some of my old teachers are now my colleagues, and they still correct my handwriting.
