About Project

The teacher of Thit Sa Way Da Gu Monastery School received the donated school land in the year 2000 and started the Bhone Taw Gyi Education School in 2006. The school provides education from KG to Grade 10 and currently has about 948 students. All the students live at the school dormitories, where they study and are cared for in terms of education, food, and clothing. The school takes responsibility for children from as young as 1 year old up to university entrance level, caring for them in age groups.

The teacher also instructs the students in tailoring and other vocational skills. It is evident that the teacher places great emphasis on management and discipline.

The school is established primarily to provide education for many young children who have had limited educational opportunities, so there are older students in the lower grades. University-level students at the school also teach evening classes for Grades 9 and 10, along with other livelihood skills.

The boys are cared for by being given traditional clothing to maintain discipline. The school has 10 temporary dormitory rooms. Due to the increasing number of older students, classroom space has become insufficient. Supporters who practice Vipassana meditation have donated classrooms that are used as dormitories for the boys.

Although the teacher is elderly, seeing the hardships faced by the children, he personally took on the task and donated a two-story school building with 10 classrooms.

The next year, before the new school building was completed, when checking the construction progress, the number of students had grown to 1,150. Therefore, a second two-story school building with 3 classrooms was donated and built adjacent to the first one.

Thus, the school now has a total of 16 classrooms in two two-story buildings, and to improve the students’ skills, 31 computers were also donated.
