This blog is a reflection from a three-day story-building workshop held in Snow Leopard |Residence with 17 students from Dolpo currently living at the Snow Leopard Residence in Kathmandu, as part of the ONGD-LLEST project to create early childhood learning materials in local languages. Over three days, students explored the purpose of stories, learned storytelling techniques, and collaboratively created original stories rooted in their lived experiences and cultural surroundings, later presenting them to the group. These stories will be part of the building the Hamro Ramailo Kathaharu collection, preserving the local stories while also building cultural connection, values, and early literacy.

On Friday, May 16, 2025, OLE Nepal organized a tri-party meeting with representatives from Lalitpur Metropolitan City (LMC) and twelve partner schools that have been receiving continued support through digital learning tools, educational content, and robotics education. The meeting brought together head teachers and robotics focal teachers from each of the 12 schools, along with representatives from LMC's Education Division and OLE Nepal’s program team. This collaborative forum aimed to review the progress of the ongoing initiatives and discuss the roadmap for future support and collaboration.

In February 2025, our project team visited two of the project locations under the ONGD-LLEST Project: Janakpurdham Sub-Metropolitan City and Dhangadhimai Municipality. With two teams of five members each, we visited Shree Madhyamik Vidyalaya in Janakpurdham-22, Basabitti, and Shree Janta Adharbhut Vidhyalaya in Dhangadhimai-4, Shantanagar. The visits focused on setting up an offline server with O.L.E. Nepal's digital learning resources, providing tablets to access those learning materials, and introducing students and teachers to our learning platforms. Beyond that, we worked to build rapport with schools and local communities, assess learning needs, test the usability of the learning platform, gather feedback through teacher and student surveys, and lay the foundation for long-term collaboration in enhancing education.

The Robotics project, initiated by OLE Nepal on May 1, 2024, and concluded on February 15, 2025, was designed to introduce an interactive and engaging STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) education platform to students in government schools within Lalitpur Metropolitan City. The primary objective was to address the limited exposure to practical, hands-on learning opportunities in Nepal’s public education system, particularly for students from underprivileged backgrounds. By integrating robotics into the curriculum, the project aimed to enhance students’ problem-solving abilities, foster logical reasoning, and cultivate creative thinking, all while providing an enjoyable learning experience.
