Children Of The Highest Elementary School In This World

User ImageiWalk 12 March 2008 4 Comments

It’s 4600 meters height above sea level. ZhaXiZong Elementary School is obviously the highest school in this world.
I was deeply affected by children’s simplicity and enjoyment.

    There are over 300 pupils in this school. 85% of them are Tibetan. And about 30% of them from poorly off family.

    Thank you Omar, I am glad that you like them.

    I attended an environmental volunteer event to Everest at May last year, and visited this school on the way back.
