Inter School German Quiz Challenge
Date: Nov 19th, 2025
The Foreign Language Department of DAV SKVB School organised an Inter-School German Quiz Challenge on 18th November in Buddha Hall, inviting PASCH/BKD schools from the capital.
The event was held to commemorate the National Unity Day of Germany and took place in the gracious presence of Vice-principal Mr. Ramchandra Khanal, Senior School Co-ordinator Mr. Tank Meghji Devji, and PASCH/BKD Programme Co-ordinator Mr. Abhishek Poudel.
The competition, jointly organised by the PASCH Initiative, Goethe-Institut, and PASCH/BKD Nepal, aimed to promote German language learning, encourage cultural understanding, and foster meaningful engagement among young learners. Five schools—Matribhumi School, Aksharaa School, Kanjirowa National School, Pragya Kunj School, and DAV Sushil Kedia Vishwa Bharati School—participated in this academic event.
The programme commenced with a welcome speech and an overview of the event, followed by the ceremonial offering of Khada by Vice-principal to the representative teachers. The ceremonial lamp was then lit by Vice-principal along with PASCH/BKD Co-ordinator, marking the formal opening of the programme. The gathering then stood respectfully for the national anthems of Nepal and Germany in honour of German Unity Day.
The primary objective of the quiz competition was to provide students with an opportunity to experience German language and culture beyond the classroom. The quiz comprised six engaging rounds that tested students’ knowledge and skills across various domains: general facts about Germany, German language proficiency, renowned German personalities, famous monuments and landmarks, iconic German brands and companies, and a musical audio-visual round. These rounds collectively offered participants an enriching and interactive learning experience.
The event was effectively co-ordinated by Mr. Sabin Shakya, Head of the Foreign Language Department at DAV School, whose dedicated efforts ensured the smooth conduct of the programme. The competition was hosted by Siddhant Jha (German) and Preetishree Shrestha (English). Siddhant, who attended the PASCH Youth Camp in Germany earlier this year, contributed valuable cultural insights and enthusiasm to the event.
As per the results, DAV School secured first position, followed by Aksharaa School in second place and Pragya Kunj School in third. Awards were presented to the winners by PASCH Co-ordinator in the presence of the Senior School Co-ordinator of DAV School.
Overall, the Inter-School German Quiz Challenge proved to be an inspiring platform for students to enhance their understanding of the German language, explore its rich cultural heritage, and develop essential cognitive and collaborative skills. The event further strengthened partnerships among PASCH schools and encouraged students to pursue their interest in foreign language learning.
