They built the base by local way.

This is the video local carpenters built the base.

Wooden parts were transported by 3 trucks from the port of Kolkata.

Roof construction completed!

August 2019,
School roof construction completed!


The roof construction completed in Surya Bharti School!

Please listen to the students' happy voice!

This video was recorded when the roof construction started.

2014, there was historical heavy rain disaster in Bihar state, and Surya Bharti School had also beg damage by heavy rain.

This was the damage.

Previous roof was old small tiles, and got damage not only heavy rain but also by the earthquake happened in Napal.

Therefore, we had stopped whenever it's heavy rain students had to put all the textbooks and notebooks away form desks because rain water powered down from the roof. 

Rainy season continues about 3 months.

Not everyday is raining, but it caused disturbing the classes.

The roof construction completed in July 2019.

New roof is made of concrete, the ceiling is high, it protects students not only from heavy rain but also from the heat in long summer season.





All the students and teachers of Surya Bharti School express great gratitude from our deepest heart to the support from El Cantare Foundation in Hawaii.

Nail extracting operation succeeded and the student is coming to school again!
Karan came back to our school!

He has been absent from school since 1 and half month ago.

He got accident one and half year ago.
A track hit him when he was riding a bicycle going back home form school, and he got serious damage like comma,  full body bruise, and fracture of femur and hip bone.

He was hospitalised and had several operation putting metal inserts to fix the fractured bones of femur and hip bone in a hospital at Patna.

One year and a few months passed, the time had come to put the metal insets away, and he went back to the hospital in Patna.

Unfortunately, after the medical examine before the operation, the doctor said "the last operation of metal insets was fail. We have to fix the bones with more strong metal insets."

And the doctor told the cost of the operation will be a few more times of the metal extracting operation.

His parents were at a loss, and they searched another hospital.

They searched several hospitals and they found a clinic for surgical treatment in Gaya.

Then, the doctor saw the results, said "It's not fail. You can get the metal off from your body.  We can have the extracting operation."

And, the operation had done, Karan was in the clinic for 4 days, after that, he was at home for treatment.

January after winter vacation, Karan has come back to Surya Bharti School.

He as pain a little, but he can walk!

Before the extracting operation, he came to school by bicycle with metals inside his bones.

It's more then 5 kilo meters away from home to school.

His house in the other road which is in different route of the school bus.

Before this operation, he dropped tears.

He can't go to school after the operation for a few month.

I cheered him up, "You have operation on hip and legs, so you have head and hands free. You can bring textbooks, and study."

He is very enthusiastic student.

His future dream is to become a mechanical engineer. 

His father is a carpenter, so he is interested in making things.

Karan said, "Now, I can study as much as I can!"

Thanks for everyone who prayed for him during the operation!

Our ex-student got admission in Ramanujan Academy (famous in movie Super 30)

Our ex-students got admission in Ramanujan Academy (famous in the movie Super 30)Image result for super30 movie
Movie "Super 30" was released all over India on 12th July 2019. 

The hero of the movie is Hritik Roshan, 
and the original character of the hero is Anand sir.

My husband is actually a friend of Anand sir from a few years.

<Super 30 official trailer>

My husband is an Interpreter in Japanese language, 
and has been working with Tokyo TV "Miraiseiki Jipang",
it is through the shooting that he met Anand sir.

And they found that they are engaged in same line,
education for children who are facing economical problems.
They became friends soon after.

Fortunately, 2 students from our Surya Bharti School 
study in Ramanujan Academy which 
Anand sir and his brother Pranav sir run.

They got special admission to the institute by their economical situation.

We thank Anand sir and Pranav sir for their great kindness.

Karan who got admission in the academy, 
who graduated from our school in March 2019.
He could take photo with Anand sir at Teacher's day.

Photo with an actor as a student in the movie.


We also watched the movie "Super 30" together with the teachers of BNC.

Although, Anand sir's life story is very famous 
and I have heard his struggling life from my husband....

I was impressed by the movie so much and couldn't help crying!
Especially  what happened to Anand sir's father was.....!

Anand sir had been attacked by gun, and it was not fiction. 

My heart became hot by watching the movie 
because the students' back grounds are so similar to our students. 
They are overlapped in my eyes. 

And I thought that the actor Hritik Roshan 
made great efforts to master local language, 
(it was not so perfect, but we feel his great efforts!)
I love the balance of the gap between 
his face and the local language!)

When the movie will be released in Japan, I recommend to watch it! 

At Anand sir's house.

Center is Pranav sir.

At a wedding party of common friend's daughter's.

We went to Patna to see Anand sir and Pranav sir 
to congratulate the movie,
unfortunately my younger daughter got fever and 
we couldn't see.

So we conveyed them congratulations by phone.

Anand sir told us he will visit Surya Bharti School someday.

He is very very famous person flying over the world,
so we thank his words.

I hope that many poor children over India 
can know the importance of education by watching the movie,
and they can get chances to get education!

I wish Anand sir will get more and more success in the future!
