As I walk into the campus every morning it gives me great joy and satisfaction seeing the tiny-tots of St. Xavier’s School, Jawalakhel, Kathmandu, greet one another spontaneously. It is indeed my privilege and pleasure to have spent eight glorious years here. I am very grateful to my Provincial Superiors and to the Jesuit community at Jawalakhel under whose guidance and constant inspiration I have grown in knowledge and learning. The school is one of the oldest, and the most prestigious one in Kathmandu, Nepal.
