WELCOME TO
THE BRICK CHILDREN'S SCHOOL
KATHMANDU VALLEY, NEPAL
WHO WE ARE...
We are the Brick Children’s School. We’re a community project supporting migrant families working in the brick fields of the Kathmandu Valley, Nepal. Working with our partners in Nepal at Kopila Nepal, we provide education and healthcare for child labourers and literacy and skills training for adults.
OUR MISSION...
Our mission is to give our pupils respite from work and a quality basic education in a safe, happy environment. We want to help each child achieve their potential and give them the opportunity just to be kids.
Our Gallery includes 31 images commissioned from a young Nepalese photographer Joytsana Simha Thakuri.

Award for long serving Trustees of the BCS

Well done Janet and Edgar and thank you for your support of the BCS from the start of the charity until your recent retirement from 'front--line' involvement
