About

History

The Colchester Nepali Literacy Class was formed in 2013 by a group of Nepalese parents in Colchester with the support of the Colchester Nepalese Society (CNS) and Army Welfare Services. Its primary purpose is to support the Nepali literacy learning of children in the local Nepalese community. Although primarily attended by children from this community, it welcomes any children who would like to learn Nepali.
