My name is Sano Kanchha. I am studying in Jiri Technical School (JTS) in Jiri-Dolakha taking a Diploma in Animal Husbandry, and I am in my third year. Our course in the 3rd year is more practical learning than the theory. We have not only been limited in our exposure to the district itself but also with the different parts of the country to observe the real situations of taking proper care of the animals. I traveled to the eastern parts of the country from 13th December to the 21st December 2017 for the educational tour. Three days of the tour was spent traveling to the eastern part of Nepal and the rest of the eight days were spent on going to the different places to see the farms. During the visit, we had more of the educational sectors related to agriculture and the animal. During the tour, we got to know about the place where the animals are reared. We asked essential key questions like: How much time do we need to examine the animal? What is the advantage of the place? Which species it? We also did some examination about the condition of the animal by checking and observing them.

We got the chance to be in the Animal Development Farms. In Pokhara, we went to see the fish farming, cage enclosure techniques, and new pig farming methodology. We got to visit famous places like Puranchaur Campus of Agriculture & Forestry University, Gandaki Trout Farm (Bhurjung Khola), Agricultural Research Center- Kaski, Ostrich Farm Rupandehi, Ghasbali Anusandhan Kendra Lalbandhi Sarlahi, Tarara Sai Farm Dharan, National Livestock Breeding Center Pokhara, Pakhribas Bakhra Farm Bandipur, Kamadhenu Dairy & Cattle Farm Gorkha, Panthi Dairy Pokhara, Parsa Banyajantu Arakshyan. We also visited places like Chitwan, Lumbini, Sauraha, Nawalparasi, Janakpur, Hetauda, Itahari, Dharan, Biratnagar, Jhapa, Illam- Kanyam tea garden, Pashupatinagara and some places in Darjeeling.

From the education tour, we gained knowledge about animals, their species, seeds and feeding behavior, curing of disease, rearing animals, grass feeding timetables. I learned many new things and got to explore many places. I got to use the practical application of the studies in the real world related to the different agricultural and animal health-related issues. Thank you for supporting me to go to the educational tour.

Field Trip Experience by Arun, HCC university student

From December 9th to 11th, I volunteered on a trip to Dhading and Nuwakot with Dinesh Uncle, Laxmi Didi, Nishan Dai, and D.P. Uncle. Our goal was to distribute winter supplies like clothes, books, and calculators to students in these areas. The trip was a rewarding and humbling experience as we connected with the children and saw the impact of HCC’s work.

We left early on December 9th, starting at 6:30 a.m. Our first stop was to meet eight students. We spent time chatting with them about their families, studies, and future goals, and distributed chocolates to them. Then, we went to Dhading Besi and visited another school, where we spent three hours meeting students, handing out supplies, and learning about their lives. A 13-year-old girl, Gita, stood out to me with her maturity and confidence.

Next, we traveled to Darkha, where we enjoyed the beautiful scenery despite the rough roads. We stayed overnight at a local hotel and the next morning met with the community, including the mayor and teachers. We gave supplies to 15 students and had meaningful conversations with locals.

In the afternoon, we visited Bindu Keshar School in Nuwakot, where we played volleyball with eight students and shared snacks. Finally, we reached Uttar Gaya, where we updated records for six students and saw their dedication to learning. We ended the trip by staying at a hotel in Nuwakot before heading back to Kathmandu the next day.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our team, sponsors, and well-wishers for their invaluable support in ensuring the education and well-being of  students in the RISE program. The field visit was a success, providing much-needed support and monitoring to students in the RISE program. Through collective efforts, we continue to create meaningful impacts on the lives of children and their families in Nepal.
