Govt. Model Higher Primary School Library, Nangali, Karnataka, India
Bringing the Joy of Reading to Nangali: Maryam Library Foundation and OSAAT Partner to Build a New School Library
The Government Model Higher Primary School in Nangali, Karnataka, India, is a vibrant place of learning. With 317 students from LKG/UKG to 8th grade, the school is committed to providing a high-quality education to all its children. Dedicated teachers, a mix of Kannada and English medium instruction, and OSAAT's digital ODiSI program ensure that Nangali's students have the tools they need to succeed.
But there was one piece missing: a proper library.
While the school had a small collection of books, including some from Room to Read India, the space itself was inadequate. There were just two library periods per week for students in classes 5 and above, and the lack of a dedicated library room limited its potential.
Luckily, Nangali's students wouldn't have to wait any longer.
Library Project
Maryam Library Foundation, in collaboration with OSAAT, is thrilled to announce the construction of a brand new library for the Government Model Higher Primary School!
This new library will be more than just a room with books. It will be a haven for Nangali's young minds, a place where they can:
Lose themselves in the magic of stories: With a wide range of new books in Kannada and English, catering to all age groups and interests, students will be able to explore their imaginations and develop a lifelong love of reading.
Learn and grow: The library will be stocked with reference materials, educational resources, and technology to support students' academic pursuits.
Connect with their peers: The space will provide a welcoming environment for children to collaborate, share ideas, and foster friendships.
Discover their passions: Whether it's art, science, history, or something else entirely, the library will offer a treasure trove of knowledge waiting to be unearthed.
The Nangali library project is not just about bricks and mortar. It's about investing in the future of these children. It's about giving them the tools they need to dream big, explore their potential, and become the leaders of tomorrow.
We are grateful to the Government Model Higher Primary School in Nangali for their partnership on this important project. We are also incredibly thankful to our supporters, whose generosity is making this dream a reality.
