Since then 'Nepal Days' have since become regular fixtures at the RGS.In October 2011 staff from the RGS made a further visit to the schools in Besisahar cementing the relationship between the schools.March 2012 saw the visit of teachers from both schools in Besishar to Guildford, staying with teachers in their homes and spending time in classes and events at RGS and Lanesborough to share experiences in teaching and learning across continents.In January 2013 former RGS Vlth form students travelled to Besisahar with the AV Group to work, like Alex did as volunteer teachers, cementing the partnership.Follow the link to read all about the partnership:www.rgs-guildford.co.uk
