· Motivational and inspiring stories
· Your experience in Canada (academic, cultural or social)
· Your experience in Nepal (before coming to Canada or from any of your visits)

Similar to last year, articles submitted by our youth for this Dashain issue and the New year issue will be evaluated for a competition and the best articles from both issues will be awarded during the New Year/AGM program in April. Prizes will be given in two categories: below grade 7 and grade 8-12.
