Wellbeing & Community

At The Himalayan School, student wellbeing and community engagement are essential to creating a meaningful life in an online school. We believe education goes beyond academics to support emotional wellbeing, social connection, and real-world learning. Our holistic approach ensures students develop resilience, empathy, and confidence while thriving in a digital learning environment

Student Wellbeing

Student wellbeing underpins every aspect of learning, engagement, and relationships—especially when shaping a balanced life in an online school. Along with academic excellence, we integrate social and emotional learning (SEL) into everyday learning experiences to support students’ mental health and personal growth.
Through theatre in education, storytelling, dance, music, and art & craft activities, students build emotional awareness, self-regulation, resilience, social skills, and help-seeking behaviours. These experiences are supported by reflective discussions, follow-up Q&A sessions, and curriculum-aligned resources that extend learning beyond the virtual classroom.
In special cases, support and intervention from a school psychologist are sought to ensure personalised emotional and psychological care

Community Engagement Program

A well-rounded life in an online school also includes active participation beyond screens. Our community engagement program encourages students to apply empathy, leadership, and responsibility through meaningful real-world experiences.
Key initiatives include:
Grow Your Own Food – Students grow food at home or on balconies and donate fresh produce to local food pantries or people in need.

Book Buddies – Older students mentor younger learners, supporting reading skills and fostering connections across age groups.

Habitat for Humanity & Social Drives – Students take part in community projects, donation drives, or field-based initiatives that promote social impact and teamwork.

By combining student wellbeing programs, community service learning, and a nurturing life in an online school, The Himalayan School creates a supportive environment where students grow academically, emotionally, and socially—preparing them to succeed in both personal and professional life
