Pop Quiz Answer

Here’s the Answer!

Painting (A) of the Tawang monastery was done by the boys of class 7! (Sangey Tsering, Dorjee Norbu, and Rinchen Tsering)
Painting (B) is by the girls! (Rinchen Lhamu, Phurpa Yangzom, and Tsering Wangmu A)

It’s so excellent, what the kids did, that I also proposed to Lobsang that we frame the two monastery paintings to hang them in the office or maybe in the guest house! I am so happy about all this incredible art talent; teaching here is just a pleasure. The creativity of the Gatsal kids is amazing! I am quite sure that our western society should try to learn from this “simple” life that Jhamtse Gatsal kids are living.

I also have had the opportunity to see class 7 also doing extra work, like cutting stones for our extended school entry; or washing walls and painting windows and doors and classrooms! Here is the best “life” school. I agree totally with Lobsang that these kids will one day go out into the world with so much practical knowledge.
