  Single Gender versus Coeducational Schools By Kanchan Khand Thakuri Diamond Secondary School, Talchowk, Pokhara, Nepal Separate schools should be made for male and female genders or not. This subject has been in discussion for a long time. Different scholars have given their opinions about the subject. Some scholars think that girls should have separate schools.

  Scarcity is the best teacher in life By Simran Bastola Bal Mandir Secondary School, Nadipur, Pokhara, Nepal Wealth can indeed bring luxury and materialistic comforts in life. Thus, children from rich families get everything as soon as they desire. Life is much more comfortable for the children of rich families, which makes them less hard-working. However, children in poor families live in scarcity. Their lives are not a bed of roses, and every day is a challenge for them.  It has been found that children who live in poverty are much more sincere and hard-working. They understand the value of money and everything. They see how difficult it is for their parents to run family affairs daily. Every day is a challenge for them. Dealing with such problems throughout their early lives eventually makes these children more sincere, hardworking, and disciplined.  On the other hand, those children who have never experienced scarcity in their lives are careless, undiscipline...
