Those students’ parents came to us and were really happy and content with the enthusiasm their children have shown towards the project. I am so thankful that this school have initiated such a great program to develop practical skill within the

• students. I want to thank the School Enterprise Challenge for coming up with such a

great concept.” Teacher, Arjun Boarding High School, Nepal “The aspect which I personally have enjoyed the most is implementing the business plan as it made me realize the surprises which we were not able to foresee while
