Huge congratulations to our amazing Scouts for an incredible showing at the historic 1st National Scouts Jamboree in Paro (May 26–30, 2026)!
The school is immensely proud of our very own student, who showed true leadership by being selected as the Gojay (leader) for the Jigme sub-camp and later serving as the overall troop leader.
They were part of:
Best Camp Award
1st Place in the Drag Race Fancy Parade
Certificate of Appreciation & Shari Bu Badge
From the dawn-breaking "Scout Stride" hike up to Paro Taktshang to community service, Mindfulness, and GNH modules, our scouts truly lived up to the theme of *"Leadership, Service, and Mindfulness."
The school administration is grateful to the Ministry of Education and Skills Development for hosting such an empowering event.
