Tashi Lamo is a seventh grade student at the Druk White Lotus School with a love for learning and a contagiously positive attitude. Tashi, sixteen, will be starting her sixth year at the school as she enters the newly established eight grade.
Living in Leh, Tashi takes an hour long bus ride to and from school everyday. She strives best in languages as she is fluent in English, Ladakhi, and Hindi, while well understanding Nepali and Tibetan. From her time at the school she has developed a deep appreciation for the schools close connection to his Holiness and the sponsor program, and admires the thoughtful materials of the architecture.
Looking ahead, Toshi would love to be a flight attendant. Even though she has never flown in an aircraft or even seen an airplane on the runway, she has no greater passion. Her love started from a consistent supply of airplane magazines that she read to help her learn English. With her imagination driving her romance with flight, she one day hopes to finally see Ladakh and its incredible size from overhead.
When asked what her favorite place was on the school campus, she drew directly to the center stage of the Mandala. With her outgoing personality and light hearted spirit, Toshi enjoys seeing everyone in a performance. Every chance she can get during a regular day, Toshi and her friends will sing songs in and language and every color. Even though she is a bit shy, her enthusiasm for the spotlight draws her to the center. The one class she would like most to be added to the curriculum would be one on singing.
