New Dawn Public School

We are tucked away in Professor Colony, over in Ward No 31 of Rambagh. It is a fairly well-known part of Purnia. New Dawn Public School sits right on the edge of the residential area. We have been here for quite some time now, and many of the kids in the neighborhood come here. The building has a few floors, and the classrooms are pretty standard with wooden desks and benches for the students. It is not a place with air conditioning in every room, but the windows stay open to let the breeze in. During the rainy season, the road outside gets a bit muddy and difficult, so everyone has to be careful walking in. We have a small playground area where the students gather for the assembly in the mornings. You can hear the teachers’ voices carrying across the halls when the rest of the building is quiet. We do not have a lot of fancy technology, just the regular stuff like books, chalk, and blackboards. The staff room is always a bit cluttered with notebooks that need marking and tea cups. We eat our lunch there and talk about the day’s lessons or what is happening in town. Most of our students are from families nearby in Khazanchi Hat. They walk or take a cycle rickshaw to get here every morning. We just focus on getting through the syllabus and making sure the kids understand what they are reading. It is a plain, honest school for the community.
