SRBS is both sustainable and beautiful! At Kids of Kathmandu, we believe a school schould go beyond the classroom: it should be a place for learning, growing, leading, and creating! SRBS is both a school and will serve as a community center for the local community in the Outer Terai District, serving as a safe place to gather and learn.

Dwarpaleshwor Basic School (DBS) is our 8th school and first constructed using rammed earth.
By reducing concrete by over 80% and providing excellent insulation properties, this beautiful building is a model for sustainable building and future schools. DBS experienced a 40% increase in student enrollment the months after the building opened.

Our 9th school takes sustainability a step further with a live roof. With a library, computer lab, and classrooms for K-3, MESH Architecture’s design addition of a live roof and rammed earth arches at the entrance to the covered entry highlight Kids of Kathmandu’s commitment to pushing the boundaries towards creating inspiring and functional 21st century school in rural communities.
