As per plan to organize Nature Club Reformation training on 10-11 May, 2012, the training program was successfully organized. A copy of report to take reference for the activities that has been done during the training program, has been attached with report. The report also includes the action plan prepared by the NC Members that they want to organize in their schools and training for the students to increase their knowledge and skills.

Overall, the activities in this quarter of the year has been able to bring a significant impact and changes in the school and the community. While discussing with teachers and the community members, they feel the change in the school and the behavior of the students who are engaged with nature club and its activities. And they are looking forward to get more impact in the students from the programs we organize in schools and communities.

New Water Tap under construction

Namaste and seasonal greetings to all our donors, well-wishers and supporters from ECCA, Nepal.

The initiation of water tank construction (approx. 7000 ltr of capacity) at Kalidhunga Higher Secondary school for the storage of drinking water and construction of water distribution system has been nearly completed. From 11^th to 15^th March, 2012 civil engineer Mr. Sagar Mulmi along with me, had a monitoring field visit in the school on the construction of water tank. During our field visit, infrastructures developed were monitored. As some infrastructures were not constructed as per the design estimation, modification of the structure as per main design was suggested for changes with the technicians. With the beginning of new education session starting from 3^rd week of april, the students in the school are getting benefit through the infrastructure developed.

Apart from the monitoring visit, discussion and information dissemination to the government officials of District Development Committee and Central District Office regarding ongoing program in Mirge VDC had also been done. Necessary administrative procedures to attain the approval for the implementation of program were initiated in district government office.

As new educational session had began, a nature club reformation training is under planning for 10-11 May, 2012. The NC reforming training will focus on developing future plans and activities that are to be conducted by nature club in their school and community. Along with the planning, various other educational training programs such as Herbal Garden Initiative, Climate Diary etc are also under planning phase to support the moral values for the students.

With the above notes, we would like to express our sincere thanks to all our donors, supporters, well-wishers and the globalgiving team for your continuous support in our initiation.

Briefing to Nature Club Member on Nature Club Kit

Namaste, Seasonal Greetings and belated happy new year 2012 to all our donors, well-wishers and supporters from ECCA, Nepal.

In this quarter of the year, the pace of our work has been a bit reduced due to various reasons. The previously mentioned projects – Construction of drinking water project and School Building Painting project hadn’t been initiated yet due to financial constrain. As the fund raising is taking place continuously for the implementation of activities planned for the project, we are planning to accomplish the project drinking water project by the end of February 2012. The discussion with the school management committee (SMC) and the teachers of the school had been discussed during the field visit on 1^st week of December. As the school does not have fencing around the periphery of the school compound, the SMC had requested to construct the drinking water project is such a way that the recurring maintenance cost is reduced and is more sustainable for long time.

The activities performed by the nature club members were also monitored during the field visit. Nature club’s executive members were guided in a group to use the materials provided through in the Nature Club Kit, so that the students could be benefited. Discussion with the nature club members regarding the support that they would seek for running the programs through nature club were also discussed. We found that the nature club members needs to be advised for better functioning and motivated. Hence, a frequent monitoring visit in an interval of 1 month to 1.5 month was planned.

Apart from these activities, Mr. Jack Williamson from Australia has been facilitating the English language training classes for the teachers of School so that the teachers could teach the students in English language and the students could compete with other students from different school.
