The uniform is the wall. Take the walls off — same playground, same library, same lunch. Twin for life.

Preethi · Xin Coonoor

One shared library between the boarding school and the village school. Books walk the road both ways.

Karthik · Xin Coonoor

Not a project. A twin. Boarding school and village school for life. Same sports days, same library.
