Govt. Middle School Thrillam Set for Revival After Three Years of Closure

Thrillam, Lumla – In a remarkable display of community initiative and administrative support, the Govt. Middle School in Thrillam village, which had remained closed for the past three years due to a shortage of students, is now being revived.

The closure of the school had forced many parents to shift their children to private institutions in nearby areas. However, understanding the vital role that a local school plays in the educational and social development of a village, the residents of Thrillam rallied together to demand its reopening.

With the proactive support of MLA Smt. Tsering Lhamu and the cooperation of key administrative officials including the DDSE, ADC, BO, BRC, CRC Lumla, CO Pamaghar, and the Lumla administration, the revival process has gained momentum. Their joint efforts have paved the way for the school to once again serve as an educational hub for the village.

Currently, the school is being maintained by the villagers themselves, and the hostels are managed by the Thrillam Village Management Team. This community-driven model reflects the dedication of the people of Thrillam to secure a better future for their children through education.

The revival of Govt. Middle School Thrillam stands as a shining example of collective action and the positive impact of strong community-government collaboration.
