Bhutan - Education



An impressive aspect of the committment to education in Bhutan is the project, now in it's nascent stages, in collaboration with Teton Science Schools ( Journeys School is a wing of TSS). This project is aimed at bringing place based education to the science taught in the Bhutanese schools. The above collection of rain water in one of the classes at Gantay Primary would be amplified and enhanced by this project. The point of view of place based education is voiced well in a caption in the Journeys School pictures: why read about a worm when you can hold one?
