Govt Junior Basic School

Down in Hari Nagar, specifically at C 173, 3rd Floor, is where you will find the Govt Junior Basic School. Being on the third floor makes things a bit interesting, especially when the little ones are arriving or leaving for the day. There is a lot of climbing up and down those stairs. We are in a residential and commercial mix of Delhi 110064, so it’s never really quiet outside. The school is focused on the younger kids, so there is always a lot of singing, shouting, and general messiness involved. We have small chairs and tables that seem to get moved around every five minutes. The walls are covered in drawings and charts that the teachers put up to help the kids learn their ABCs and numbers. It’s a tight space, but we make it work for everyone. Sometimes the water cooler acts up, or we run out of chalk, but we manage. The staff here is used to the fast pace and the high volume of a junior school. We spend our days making sure nobody falls down the stairs and everyone finishes their snacks. It’s a very practical environment where the focus is just on the basics of education. We don’t have a fancy playground or a big library, just our classrooms on the third floor and a lot of energetic children. It’s a tiring job, but it’s what we do here in Hari Nagar.
