"Netarhat vidyalaya first started at Chalet House," Das said in his address, referring to the wooden structure built in the early 20th century. The two-storey Chalet House is half a kilometre away from the main campus. Initially, Chalet House was used as a summer getaway for British officers. "We have been fighting to get back Chalet House for long. Sometime in 1958, when the school got land for expansion, Chalet House was converted to house the principal's residence and a clinic," he said.
