St Joseph's Band

St Joseph's school in Gitdubling has expanded to accommodate pupils from grade 7 to Grade 10 at which stage they can sit the State Leaving Examinations. Prior to this year 2010, the pupils have had to transfer to another secondary school in either the town of Pedong or Kalimpong. Many could not continue in education after Grade 7 as they could not afford to financially.

The new primary school has been built to free up class rooms for the increasing numbers of secondary school pupils.

The New primary School was inaugurated during my visit last December It was a very happy and joyous occasion.
