This school is the latest addition into the TCV family. There is a sizeable number of Tibetans living in the New Aruna Nagar, Majnu-ka-Tilla on the banks of the river Jamuna.

The Tibetan settlement in Leh known as “Sonamling” has 9 different camps scattered along the IndusRiver. Since it was difficult for smaller children to attend the main school located in the Children’s Village in Choglamsar, Creche centers and Day Schools in the camps were set up in 1976.
Today, the Agling Day School has classes from Pre-Primary to V, while the Choglam and Menlha Day Schools have up to class III. These schools have a total capacity for around 400 children.
