The new Hostel, toilet and washing facilities at The Garden of Wisdom School close to Shushakul Monastery in Ladakh are coming on a treat and weather permitting will be completed by the end of the year. Thanks to a private sponsor, this will enable more destitute children, including girls, to live and study at the school.

The new buildings are being constructed using the energy efficient, ancient #RammedEarthTechnique. As you can see in the photos, green netting is also embedded into the upright posts to allow the buildings to flex as this area is one of the most prone to earthquakes in the world.
