Life in Haji Public School : A Photo Essay

I reached Haji Public School on 18th May 2016 and left on 19th July 2016.

Two marvellous Months of interaction with kids for whom we were at times the window to the world.

Teaching those who have no pre conceived notions was a great joy.

I hope they enjoyed it as much as I did.

On top of it all the hills and weather was wondrous.
