The school construction is progressing steadily, and we are confident that we will be ready when we open our doors to our students on March 15, 2010.
We would like to add the clarification that while three blocks are being built, to function comfortably at the time of opening we require no more than one block (which is Block A near the Thimphu Chhu which is pictured below) and the ground floor of the building in the center (which is the ground floor of Block C where our laboratories are located). The reason for this is the fact that we are taking in less than 50% of our capacity of 624 children in this inaugural year. Additionally, any remaining construction work has been planned to ensure its segregation from the operational areas of the school, keeping in mind all safety considerations for our students.
While we expect to complete all buildings within a few months into the academic year, we hope this clarification will put to rest the perception that we will need all three buildings to begin the school.
