Sericulture Development Center
Khopasi, Kavre
On the date 14th June, Grade 10 students of Jagat Mandir Secondary School were taken to the Sericulture Development Centre located at Khopasi, Kavre. Every one of us was very much excited. All of us had a great gossip together throughout our journey. We reached to the center at about 11 am.
After reaching we
started to roam around then we were taken to see the eggs laid by the silkworm.
There were uncountable numbers of eggs. It seems to be unreal. Then we went to
see the different species of mulberry trees whose leaves were used to feed
larva. We even saw a smoker in which the eggs were stored for hatching. Then we
saw a place made up bamboo where larvae were kept for feeding. Then we went to
see the machine which was used to extract silk thread from the pupa. Then we
took some group photos. After that we went to a room where one person described
us about the different stages of lifecycle of silkworm. Then after the class we
had our lunch and returned to the school.
After reaching school
we went to the class and took same rest. Our classes were continued. I’d to
thank our school administration for organizing such educational journey for us.
Thank You
