Uttar Buniyadi Vidyalaya

Our school is located in Limbdi, which is part of the Surendranagar district. Being an Uttar Buniyadi Vidyalaya, there is a bit of a traditional feel to the way we handle things here. The campus has some open ground where we can do a bit of gardening or have the kids do some outdoor activities. The buildings are quite old but they are very sturdy and have lasted a long time. We have students coming in from all the nearby villages every morning. They usually arrive on the local buses or just walk if they live close enough. It is a quiet area for the most part, except for when the kids are out on their break and making noise. We have a small library with a few shelves of books that the students are allowed to use during their free time. The classrooms are very basic, with simple fans that hum all day long to keep the heat away. We spend a lot of time on the core subjects and also include some practical skills that are part of our specific curriculum. The staff is mostly made up of local people, so we all know each other and the families of the students quite well. We do not use much fancy technology, just the usual chalk and boards. It is a regular school for the community and we have been here for a long time now.
