Going to School on a Mountaintop (How Some Children Go To School in India-Ladakh)

Going to School on a Mountaintop means you have to be able to climb. Skarma knows how to climb, so does his friend Sonam - it is how they get to school. You have to be able to climb if your school is nestled in the mountains. There is no electricity in this school or in the village, but in the summer months this does not matter - school moves outside where there is plenty of light. Today, high in the mountains where India touches Tibet, 29 children are learning about their world and playing hide-and-seek in the bright, cold sunlight.

In this award-winning book and film series, you will experience what it is like to go to school in India through the eyes and voices of children. Every school day, millions of children in India go to school by boat, by bicycle, by wheelchair or barefoot.

Going to School in the Dark (How Some Children Go To School in India-Rajasthan)
When other children go to school, many girls in India stay home to look after their younger brothers and sisters; they help with the housework and in the fields. As the sun sets, they emerge from their houses to walk each other to school in the fading light. Electricity here is erratic at best, and the girls go to school lit by the light of solar lanterns. At school they learn how to count numbers, read stories, and even think for themselves. All the girls who go to school here are members of an elected children's parliament - the girls run their own schools and decide what their school can be. Their school is for girls only because boys go to government schools during the day. Going to School in India Series is based on the book by Lisa Heydlauff.
