Waghjai Green Hills English School

Our school is tucked away in Koparde, which is a small area near Kolhapur. We are called Waghjai Green Hills English School. It’s a quiet place compared to the city. We have a simple building with several classrooms for the local children. Most of the kids come from the surrounding villages and farms. We teach in English, which is what the parents here want for their kids. The school building is just a plain concrete structure. We have a small yard where the students can run around during their lunch break. There are some trees around the perimeter which give some shade when it’s sunny. The teachers are mostly local people who understand the life of the families here. We don’t have computers in every room or any high-tech gadgets. We use traditional books and boards. It’s a very practical way of doing things. The daily routine is quite steady. We start with a morning assembly and then go through the classes until the afternoon. You won’t see any big posters or advertisements for us. We just rely on the local community knowing we are here. Sometimes the road to the school gets a bit muddy when it rains, but we all manage. It’s just a humble place for the kids to get an education. We’ve been part of the Koparde landscape for many years now and we just keep doing our work.
