I spent 4 weeks at New Marigold. I really think it's important to stay for at least 2 weeks if you can because you spend the first week of your experience getting used to the new environment, routine and getting to know the kids. I loved spending 4 weeks at this school. This school is still relatively new and has expanded quickly so is a place that is open to new ideas and energy! I loved playing sport with volunteers and locals at the end of school days and going down to the local village for yummy food like momos and samosas! I highly recommend this experience!

The kids at the school are adorable and very hardworking. I really enjoyed taking care of them! Work is very flexible, and you can form your experience into how you would like it as new ideas are always welcome. Main tasks consist of helping Bimala in the kitchen, assisting and teaching classes, and giving one on one lessons for the kids that needs an extra helping hand. Other than that, you can also help making content for their social media. I really enjoyed the experience and met a lot of amazing people along the way. I would highly recommend.

The New Marigold Project is a mind-blowing experience. I was here for the first time in June 2022, right after Shamser Thapa took over this school. The process he made with the support of all volunteers, workers, donors, and teachers is tremendous. Initially, there was no running water, and school rooms were desolate, but now it's phenomenal and unique.

New Marigold is one of the school that I love! Being part of the team, it was amazing! This is the school where you can da lot of things, like gardening, cooking, teaching, meeting international travelers, meeting locals and learning new things! I like the way how organized is the host coz he have this white board where all task are written down and you can put your name to do that task. Also, the host is friendly and accommodating. He have a lot of good plans to help the locals. He is doing everything to help. Thank you so much Shamser for being an extraordinary host to all of us!
