Our Story

A Legacy of Excellence Since 2066 B.S.

Shine Village International Academy was established in 2066 B.S. in Waling, Syangja, with a vision to provide quality, internationally benchmarked education to the children of our community.

Since our founding, we have grown steadily — expanding our facilities, faculty, and academic offerings — while staying true to our founding motto: "Shine For Children Shine." Every child who walks through our gates is given the support and opportunity to discover and develop their unique talents.

Today, SVIA offers education from Early Childhood Development (ECD) through Grade 10, and is proudly recognized as an ISO 21001:2018 Certified Educational Organization — a reflection of our commitment to international standards in educational management and continuous improvement.
