Nepal Quake: Schools in Affected Areas Start to Re-Open
Thousands of schools damaged during April's devastating earthquake
in Nepal have begun to re-open.
BBC News

.
.
More than 25,000 classrooms in some 8,000 schools were destroyed in the
7.8 magnitude quake and its aftershocks, and more than 8,000 people died.
.
Many have only been rebuilt on a temporary basis using materials such as
bamboo, wood and tarpaulin.
.
Classes will initially focus on group activities to help children recover
from the trauma of the disaster.
.
Earlier this week, the United Nations said that one month on from the
quake, the world needed to provide more food and shelter for those left
homeless.
.
Meanwhile, the Nepalese government - which has been criticised for being
slow to respond - has called for more direct aid funding.
Nervous return
.
The government closed all schools in the Kathmandu region for the month of
May, amid continuing aftershocks in the aftermath of the 25 April tremor.

.
In the worst-hit districts of Gorkha, Sindhupalchok and Nuwakot, it is
estimated that more than 90% of schools were destroyed.
.
In all, the government is planning to open 15,000 temporary learning
centres, according to the Asian Development Bank.
.
Education ministry official Lavadeo Awasthi told the Times of India
newspaper that the temporary classroom structures "will have to do for the
next two years, in which time the buildings should be restored".
