Our LitClub Nepal family continues to grow, and recently we visited our 2 newest clubs: LitClub Panchakanya and LitClub Shree Krishna. These two clubs are part of Rukmini Foundation’s partnership with schools in more remote parts of where we work. We were very happy to meet with the LitClub members and their mentors, especially after LitCamp 2017 in July.
We got to know our new LitClub members thanks to LitCamp 2017
3 mentors (Susmita, Shreejana Tamang and Pooja) started the program at Panchakanya School with full of excitement. Panchakanya mentor Shrijana Ghising expressed her joy to be able to start such a program in the school. We started the program with the Namaste song, which is our version of the “Hello” song. We continued our session with the “Hello Lady” song and other fun activities. We asked the girls to describe the happiest moment that happened that week. Most of the members said that they enjoyed meeting with their friends after school exams. The girls were very engaged and enjoyed all of the activities. We conducted LitClub activities like singing “Fire in the Mountain” and playing the “Bullfrog” game. The girls got to know these activities in LitCamp, so they really enjoyed it.

As part of the program, we had a read aloud session also. We read the book “Bidanta”, which is about friendship .The group talked about the importance of friendship in life. To end the session we sang Good bye song.
LitClub Shree Krishna was just as much fun for everyone.
After our program at Panchakanya School, we arrived at Shree Krishna School still full of excitement. LitClub Mentor, Gita Basnet and all club members were eagerly waiting for this session. Similar to LitClub Panchakanya, we started our program with the “Hello” and “Hello Lady” songs. We played the same games and had as much fun as we did at Panchakanya. The club seemed very happy to have us and happy with this session. They remembered all of the LitClub songs and also remembered names of their new friends from other LitClubs they met during the LitCamp.
Thank you to all of the mentors for this great day of LitClub activities. Thank you to Sabina Didi for taking great pictures.
