We provide a high quality curriculum, with a committed staff to help prepare students for their future role, as well as to discover and promote the gifts and talents. We celebrate excellence, innovation and creativity in an exciting environment where our school community works together to enable students to become successful life-long learners.


      We also believe that education process is a joint responsibility of the school and home and seeks to involve parents in their child educational program. Each child will progress developmentally according to his or her interest in learning, ability and potential to learn and the encouragement, support and assistance provided by teachers and families. There is no limit to the learning of each child as he or she can continue to develop at an individual rate.


    At our school, we assist both you and your child with any problems they may face during their education period at Nirvana. Our school strives to provide a quality education to each child in a caring and happy environment. We value the assistance families can provide in ensuring our school continuity in order to maintain the highest possible standards for each and every one of its students.

               The school library is well equipped. It has books for all children as well as teachers. The library has a good collection of children's books and periodicals. The children are taught how to use the library and get the most out of it that develops their knowledge and wisdom.

Our school cafeteria is perhaps the most 

sought after place in the whole school. It serves whole some meals at lunch time and snacks, and beverage during breaks. Both children and their teacher have their food together. Besides lunch, the children are served fruit-juice, milk and snacks at different times of the day.

The school has a fleet of buses which runs on fixed routes in and around Kathmandu. Students may avail of this facility if they wish to.

• Co-curricular activities 

At Nirvana Academy we disagree with the idea that curricular activities are superior to co-curricular activities. As such it gives equal  importance to both. The school has an excellent team of teachers who specialize in different co-curricular activities. Our students are taught music, dance, martial arts, different types of sports and many more. It is mandatory for all students to take part in these activities.
