Samtenling Primary School

The Inter-House Dzongkha Storytelling Competition was held on May 8, 2026. Unlike conventional competitions, the participants were not pre-selected. Instead, every student from Classes IV, V, and VI was given an equal opportunity to learn and develop the skill of storytelling. This approach helped students realize that all members of the respective houses were valued and provided with a fair chance to participate in the competition.

During the event, participants from Classes IV, V, and VI of each house were selected through a wheel spinner system, ensuring transparency and equal participation. At the end of the competition, Druk House secured the first position, followed by Seng House in second place, Taag House in third place, and Chung House in fourth place.

More than emphasizing competition, the programme focused on holistic participation by encouraging every house member from Classes IV to VI to prepare and practise storytelling under the guidance of their respective house masters.

The Inter-House Volleyball Competition was successfully conducted from 23rd April 2026 to 30th April 2026 with active participation from all four houses.

In the boys’ category, Seng House emerged as the champion, followed by Tag House as the first runner-up, Druk House as the second runner-up, and Chung House securing the third position.

Similarly, in the girls’ category, Seng House once again claimed the championship title. Chung House secured the first runner-up position, while Tag House and Druk House stood as the second and third runners-up respectively.
